"This is perhaps the best book I read as a kid. Was ridiculously psyched when my mom found a used copy and gave it to my sister and I for Christmas a few years ago."
"As imaginative and improbable a tale as this is, every time I read it I am completely drawn into the fairy tale. The story follows Patricia, a girl from Australia, and Thrump-O-Moto, a young wizard from Japan. Together, they go on a number of fantastic adventures. In terms of the format, it is a beautifully illustrated children's book that takes about an hour to read. A truly warm and wonderful story."
"If you have children this book is a bit old but it was read to me growing up and I loved it for years. It has amazing illustrations and is a rare but classic book."
"Weird. I got this book as a little girl. I can't remember who gave it to me, but it scared me for awhile. I read it again a couple years ago and I'm still not sure what's going on. The pictures are great though."
