The Princess and the Goblin Reviews

3.5
“This was my favorite movie growing up, so when I saw the book in my daughter’s curriculum, I got so excited. I was a bit worried that the writing would be too over her head, but the audiobook narrator gave such a performance that she was hooked from the beginning. We both enjoyed it immensely. Highly recommend as a family read aloud.”
