Dark and spooky, with the feel of a Grimm's tale. Our heroine is very clearly coded as autistic, in ways that are clearly complimentary and part of her strengths. As an adult I could see the moral at the end coming from a mile away, but it still hit all the right notes on the way there, and wouldn't likely be as obvious to a child.
