The Swiss Family Robinson Reviews

3.0
“mixed thoughts. Decently written and could reasonably keep my attention. Yet the constant "perfect family" concept that seems over the top got to me. Things are too easily resolved, no real conflict. I mean lets see a family disagreement that leaves them not speaking for a day or something. But no, All Godly people that move on way to smoothly to feel real, especially under the circumstances. they just roll with the disaster they find themselves in. <br/>I liked the creativity of some of their solutions of being stranded and how there is humor laced throughout the word-play of the book.”
