Review: Astonishingly terrible, given the raving reviews
Rating: 1 out of 5

I was so disappointed to buy this book and find out that it wasn't nearly as good as the reviews would have one believe. First of all, the book is annoyingly sexist--in this modern world it's distressing to read that it's once again the women who are the villains. Secondly, the book, while beautifully illustrated, is just badly written. The verb tenses don't match, the grammar is terrible, and some words are used incorrectly. This is a terrible book to give to a new reader because of these problems. Much as I applaud the author's ambitions and good intentions, I won't buy their books again.
