Loved it!
The whimsical tale delves into friendship, true happiness, and the importance of inner beauty, and teaches good deeds earn respect.
Cute story, love the imagination!! I didn’t get anything done yesterday but read this book. If I was still teaching I would read it to my class.
It was so enjoyable, I read it in one day. Giggler made me laugh.
Bought this for my granddaughter but I read it first. This fairy tale is for younger readers. Follow the adventures of Giggler, Vermina and Daisy. The story keeps one engaged and wanting to read more. I really enjoyed the second half of the book and how the author pulled everything together with all of the amazing characters. I would highly recommend this book, it has a lot of good morals. I plan on reading it to my granddaughter now.
