Cute story for the wild child in your life

The biggest negative is that it can be a bit violent. She is on adventure to save her friend and has to overcome "monsters" with the help of new friends. My youngest struggles with reading and finding something that maintains her interest can be difficult. This does it and I will be purchasing the next books.
