- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This is a lesson book. That is the entire point of the “story”. But saying it’s a story, is using that word very loosely. Its too long and has no real flowing story to use at story time. This is a book you hand a parent who needs help with their kid. Not one that will readily be picked up for mindless browsing.
