I give this book  4.5 ⭐️’s the reason why I took off a point is because I would have really liked for the kids to be able to meet back up with their parents which didn’t end up happening in the book. However, I did enjoy the character development that happened in the book with the one twin boy having his face stuck in his game boy and the other one being overly hyper and climbing at the tree in the forest to both of the twins actually being in the moment and trying to figure out how to get back to their parents. I also like how the sister ended up being grateful for the fact she had twin brothers even if the only reason was because the beast wouldn’t eat them.
