Hi @Lorna Philip Enslin, the official review kept my attention and I look forward to reading the entire book. Then I will read it to my great grandsons in the near future. I am glad that we occasionally get a children's book on OBC. Good book and a very good review. @Mrlefty0706

Hi @Lorna Philip Enslin, I liked your comments on the sample and official review. There are several lessons to be learned by readers and children that have the book read to them. The book focuses on the love of family and the fact that if one does not have a plan then one is bound to fail. @Mrlefty0706

The illustrations must be really beautiful to behold, and I cannot wait to see them while reading the book. I am happy that Sparkleful was ready to assist her sister Marvelouz; this is the attitude we need in life. I have added the book to my want-to-read shelf. Many thanks for the informative review.

No plans is planning to fail. I agree with this statement. Also the fact the elder didn't blame her sister for the mistake is admirable. It's not enough to want something, but making sufficient plan in fulfilling it.

I can tell from the cover that the illustrations must be spectacular! Marvelouz seems like a sweet girl who loves to experiment with new things but somehow ends up getting in trouble. I'm glad to know that her sister is kind and helpful. Congratulations on the BOTD!

The reviewer's honesty about feeling overwhelmed initially adds authenticity. The acknowledgment of not having read the first part provides helpful context. Despite this, the positive outlook on the series' potential encourages me to give it a try. The minor editing mistake doesn't deter my interest.

This book is good for not only children but also adults to set goal, learn clearly how to accomplish set goals and accept help to achieve those goals. Most importantly good for children to learn that good things come with a cost and sacrifice of time to achieve them in the right way.
The older sister did a good job to show the younger one what to do. I would recommend it still to everyone, though i do not like the witch part of it.

The emphasis on the book's design and illustrations creating a visual narrative is appealing. Knowing that the story imparts valuable lessons adds depth to the narrative. I'm drawn to explore how the older sister's guidance contributes to the plot's development in "Marvelouz Grows a Garden."

The review vividly highlights the enchanting world of Marvelouz and Sparkleful. The mention of the beautiful illustrations by Alicja Siemiatkowska piques my interest. I'm intrigued to discover the mishaps Marvelouz encounters while growing her garden in "Mishaps of Marvelouz Witch Book Two."
