Perfect

My 8-year old avid reader was thrilled to receive this gift and read it almost immediately.

Nice Artwork!

This book is good for the kids, it skips some of the material covered in the movie to keep it short. The movie is great too.

it was the best

Congratulations to shackleton. And the pictures were great!! My favorit part was where they slid down the maountain.
