The fancifulness of the story only reinforces the important message within, and makes the heartbreaking conflict in the middle that much more redemptive in the end! If you want to know what's wrong with our society, it's that books this good don't get read to every kid by their parents! This one ranks among the top stories for kids of all time, and should be given it's due. Do yourself and your kids a favor and GET THIS BOOK!
