This book was long! It was delightfully scrambled with long diverted interludes. Some parts made my kids laugh. I liked all the characters, liked the way we could crawl into it and relax with the characters at their donut shop. There was nothing about it though, that made me turn the pages with anticipation. It set out to be light in terms of tension and drama and it was. Not scary enough, I guess is what I'm saying.
