Slightly strange but entertaining submitted by willow on August 2, 2016, 1:45pm I was surprised my kids liked this book as much as they did -- given that it was mostly about fancy dinner parties and marrying off young daughters. However, the narrator was engaging at making different voices with different accents, and the book was overall fairly funny.
