Enchanting
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
The lovely artwork perfectly complements the interplay of realism and fantasy as Queen Drac and her little-brother-nemesis Gremlin battle in the wilderness of their yard against monstrous domesticated pets. This was actually a perfect read for two college students on a date, reflecting on their childhood, but (regarding "a reader"s review) younger children perhaps would not appreciate it. Still, the art and imagination may be intriguing even if they don't catch the irony.
Nicely done, but what age will appreciate it?

There's quite a pleasant interplay between the art, which depicts realistically the play of two small children, and the text, written in the context of their imaginary play. Alas, I'm not quite sure it works; given the brevity of the text, this would seem to be intended for 2-4 year olds, yet this age group may not be able to grasp the tension between text and illustration, which is the whole point. Still, a very nice piece of work.
