THE ILLUSTRATIONS

THE COLOURS

I AM JUST AMAZED

THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND GARLIC IS SUCH A RELATABLE CHARACTER AND I LOVED HER RELATIONSHIP WITH CARROT (though honestly he should have volunteered to go with her) AND OMG THE VAMPIRE IS ADORABLE I COULD SQUISH HIM

The only thing I had an issue with was when Witch Agnes said that because Garlic and the others are no longer mute they can go and follow their dreams instead of gardening...

Other than that, this book was so fun and cute. Perfect for all ages.
