Prince A Giant Peacock and the Gold Ring

<p>This is a great book to read as a bed time story to children of all ages and is a good read for grades 4 & up.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong> A magical old-fashioned fairy tale</strong><strong>: </strong> by John Buell: This is a wonderful callback to more traditional fairy tales. I could really feel the writer's heart on every page. It was longer than I expected but it was a nice change of pace and the story felt like it could really breathe as opposed to needing to zip along.</p><p><br></p><p>The artwork is really magical... there are two full spreads in particular that I really adored including one that spans the glimmering night sky. These moments were priceless.</p><p><br></p><p>And there is a twist...! I will not say more but it is wonderful and I did NOT see it coming.</p><p><br></p><p>I absolutely recommend this story to emerging readers and I'm excited to see what this author chooses to tackle next!</p>
