It's just okay.
3 stars
Being part of an audience that isn't intended sometimes makes books a little less enjoyable. It's not really the type of story that I would have enjoyed, and I don't think my child-self would have either. That said, it's not good or bad; it's just okay.
I like the problem-solving element, which I think ties in nicely with a lot of classroom lessons (and that's how I'm generally thinking about a lot of these books).
