I was so caught up in it that I read it first. I loved that the sentences are rather simple - like the old silent movies would be. The illustrations were fantastic. I wanted to study each one but the story was good enough that I had to get to the next page. Then my husband picked it up out of curiosity and read it. Finally I gave it to my son. He loved it...and passed it on to his younger sister. It's overdue now but she isn't quite done! Great recommendation. I checked it out from the library for my 6th grader.
