A book kids will love

Although it appeals to all ages, if you are looking for a book for early readers this a great find. The author's use of unique charactors such as "Felicia the 6-toed fairy" stirs the imagination of the reader. Great first book from a very promising author! Can't wait to read your next.

A Creative Twist to the Game of Hide and Seek

This is a great read that will easily captivate any audience....young or old. The excitement, adventure, magic and creativity kept me reading from the start right to the end.

Excellent! Bravo! Encore! This is an adventure story for all ages. Peter de Witt does a wonderful job showing children they are not alone in experiencing the trials and tribulations of childhood and reminding parents of they went through at that age.
