I got this book for the kids that I tutor but when I glanced at the beginning I was hooked and ended up reading it in one sitting. The language and characters are charming, and there are some real lessons to be learned from Penelope and the wise Agatha Swanburne. The only problem with this book is that it leaves you hungry for more. I've already reserved the third book at the library... and my kids will just have to wait until I'm done reading it first! ( ) I found this book so charming and funny. It reminds me of Jane Eyre, which is clearly intended to do. The humor and ways in which the author talks to the reader reminds me of Lemony Snicket. I really want to read the next book, unlike many tween mystery novels, I still have some things I haven't figured out about the story and that is very exciting. Another Lemony Snicket-y goody! Its only shortcoming as a book is that it's the first in a series and therefore a big tease. No revelations, just setup. But really funny, smart, enjoyable setup. It's a fantastic audiobook--I dare say possibly better than reading it because the narrator does some awesome howling. Today I kept hearing "Lumawoo" and "Cassawoof" and "Nutsawoo" in my head. So great! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
