    First of all, it’s a kids book.

    Second of all, it’s a poorly written kids book.

      Eh, I think it’s pretty well-written. It hits all the important parts of a good kids novel series:

      • fun to read
      • few immediately obvious plot holes (that a 10yo would notice)
      • easy for a child to imagine that they’re in that world

      We need more series like Harry Potter with high engagement that also promote creativity.
