Sets a very high standard

There is a reason why Nesbit was so well known. It is books like this. Required reading for 21st century writers.

You should read this!

I think that the book was wonderful!
The narrating was amazing, and I had I good time listening to it.

I feel like the end of the book was a bit boring. I was looking for a bit more.. but I’m very glad it had a happy end.

The plot was interesting and kept me turning the pages, but I felt like it could’ve used a little more explanation.

Sadly, I wanted to finish quickly and not have to keep reading it.
I wanted to move on with it.
I do think that it was a lovely book and the author did a great job of character development. You should definitely read this. It is a great book to listen to if you are just doing random things like laundry. It helps pass the time. I do not suggest it for people who tend to be impatient. It doesn’t make me sit at the edge of my seat.

This is a special one.

Written over 100 years ago, this I think is one of Nesbit’s most interesting children’s books. It deals with history and the fluidity of time.
