This book came in great condition. The story is a fantastical adventure of a strong-willed girl who ends up realizing some of her goals for her future weren't with the right perspective. She quests to fulfill her planned experiences, and ends up struggling to break a 200 year old curse. Lynn Reid Banks writes the story well, and it is an appropriate read-aloud book that kept my young grade school children immersed and begging for me to keep reading at the end of each chapter.

A librarian read this book to my class in elementary. Now I'm in college and I just kept thinking about that story I loved- I wanted to read it again. I bought it and love it just as much as before. It's a wonderful read that I'll one day share with my children. Know that it does have magic and a witch in it, so if you want to avoid those types of things, this one isn't for you. Other than that, it's wonderful.
This was my favorite book as a child and it is now one of daughters’ favorites too. A perfect tale of a girl growing into a hero.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!!! It was great when I was a kid and I still love it to this day. I have read it at least a dozen times since I first found it in my grade school library. Every once in a while I think of Dankin and the other charecters in the book and have to go search out a copy. It's a fun read that anyone would find enchanting.
I bought this book cause It was my favorite growing up so I bought this copy and gave it to my son. My son read and enjoyed it.
