There is one word for this highly original book. Fun! I'm years away from childhood but I so enjoyed playing this game. At the end of each short chapter the reader is given two options. Choose one and off you go, on your own special adventure, making choices all the way. I went back and tried out everything. At least I THINK I tried all the options. 'Once upon an Island' is full of surprises, none of which I'm going to reveal. I might just mention the rock ..... no, no, I musn't, you'll have to find out for yourself. I did laugh at what happens if you choose not to go to the island. And if you didn't get into the boat... oops no, I don't want to spoil the fun.This would be an ideal book to keep kids happy on a long journey, or if they have to rest in bed or at any time! D.M. Potter must have worked incredibly hard to create this magical maze of stories. Everything flows easily from one exciting event to the next. Highly recommended.
