loved it submitted by unknown on July 30, 2013, 2:28pm A great story that was both imaginative and entertaining and with no violence. A good read for everyone but especially young people.

A perfect book submitted by KimB on June 16, 2022, 10:55pm I accidentally put this on hold, but I checked it out and brought it home anyway. My teen read it in an afternoon and declared it really fun, even if it was for younger kids and suggested that I read it as well. I did and it was a quick and, as promised by my teen, a very fun read. The story itself might be a bit too complicated for really young readers as there is a lot of twists and tangles in the plot. (I would say it could be a good chapter book to read to my 4yo, but I think he'd lose a lot of the nuance of the story.)
cute story, great reread submitted by JessicaIJ on June 15, 2023, 9:11pm reread this, first time being several years ago. it’s a cute story. i had completely forgotten what is was about until i read the first few words of the back (up to about “Talent”) and all of a sudden i had a vivid memory of suitcases come back to me, which i found amusing.
