“Seriously, the writing is seamless! It has a tune and rhythm to it: like music! It flows so well.
That's largely because the author sticks to using similar sounds and consistent meter. Again, it's like reading a sheet of music rather than plain ole' boring words! There's an aspect of this that reminded us of a Dr. Seuss book.”
