Customer Reviews

Thouroughly delightful!

I found this book thouroughly delightful, and am hoping it is an introduction for me of a thouroughly delightful writer. I enjoyed every moment of the story, just enough tension, just enough truths (without sermonizing or platitudes), just the right descriptions (a poet, of course). Children should thouroughly enjoy this book, and it would be a wonderful read aloud story. My copy is in the Fantasy Annual IV, edited by Terry Carr (Timescape Books,1981). If you just want a tale that is lighthearted and not too childish for an adult to read, this is a lovely vacation book.

i liked it!

it was a good book. i just don't think it was the best. it was pretty colse to the book. i've seen the movie many times. but if you liked the movie(witch i really did not like that much) you'll like this very good book.
