Interesting read, but I do feel like it could have been so much more. It ended too quickly!
Surreal is a good word to describe this story of a girl who on her eighth birthday wishes for an elephant to come and take her away from her life. When she gets her wish and doesn't come back her parents miss her and dream of her walking with the elephants, until an old woman, Miss Adelle, finds her and convinces her to go home. The story is poetic and lovely in a rather bizarre way. I love the illustrations by Ana Juan.
Another cute fairytale by Jessica.
Boring
Loved it. Read about it in Booklist magazine and it sounded so great that I couldn't resist. Glad I read it. The heroine is one tough piece of work. Fighting, romance, a suggestion of sex, and a huge adventure. What's not to love?
