What a sweet book! If anyone's looking for an escape from the hellfire that is today's world, this book is a great place to disappear into. Sure, there are reminders that the world isn't great in here, but the characters move past it, and talk about how to fix the problems that come up. It's nice to see as the story unfolds.

At points the language and writing are a little juvenile, but it's such an enjoyable tale that it's easy to get past that. I truly loved the children in the book, and wish it had been longer just so we got to meet more of them.

The LGBT rep is a little subtle at first but them it blossoms quite nicely, though never into anything graphic.
