This was over 400 pages, really? It was a total breeze to go through: entertaining without sacrificing meaning, hilarious and suspenseful by turn. I was completely in love with Madeline throughout, even tho she and I differ in one important respect: she adores conflict, but I too often find myself dragged unwillingly into it. I pretty much loved everything about this book, tho I felt it faltered slightly in telling Jane’s real reason for coming to Pirriwee. A comic masterpiece, especially relevant to modern mothers of young children. I can’t recommend it highly enough.
