My niece and I began reading these together when she was 6. Three years later, now she reads Lumberjanes on her own, without me, but for this special last adventure the kiddo asked me to read it to her. I was crying so hard that by the end my niece read the final pages to me. It's been wonderful to read this series for so many reasons. I will truly miss the Roanoke Cabin. FRIENDSHIP TO THE MAX!
