I never read any Lloyd Alexander as a kiddo, so thought I would try this series out because apparently Disney may be re-doing the film AND the 50th Anniversary editions are a marvel and lovely to hold in your hands.

I enjoyed the tale for the most part, but as an adult reader I found the writing very choppy and lacking on important world-building details that I personally crave. I'm going to set this series aside until I can read them aloud to my daughter.
