This sounds like it is a well done children’s book that shows how the balance between work life and family life can be a difficult one. I love your suggestions of more illustrations because I believe these really add to a book for kids and give it more depth. Great job on this review.

I will definitely recommend this read to my younger brother since I don't think I'd enjoy it that much. The concept sounds good though. Can't wait to see what he thinks about it.

Even though it has been so long since I was at in elementary school, I always appreciate a good futuristic fiction book aimed toward that age group. It's so imaginative!

This story sounds lovely. Little magical creatures that hid in a salt mine and come to help, umm, delicious. I love that the book has valuable lessons such as the importance of family and honesty. This is probably a chapter book. Chapter books don't have many illustrations as they bridge between Picture books and Middle-Grade books, so it sounds like this is well done and appropriate for the age group.

Your review was excellent! After reading a sample of this book, and your review, this sounds like a wonderful children's book that I would definitely like for my granddaughter to read! A charming children's book with an interesting story and also teaches some valuable life lessons I will definitely be recommending this to my grandchildren!

I've never read this book before, but based on the reviews and such it seems I would enjoy the storyline...but at the same time I dont think its really suitable for young children of ages 5-8 family squabbles aren't for children we shouldnt subject their little minds to adult lifestyle

This sounds like a lovely children's story about the Mine Moppet creatures. Not one for me, but I can appreciate a whimsical story. Fab review!

Its appearing perfect for children. I would love to read this which can be used to tell bedtime stories to my sister. It is important to teach the children at very young age good values. I would appreciate the author for creating pieces like this.

The 3 m's in "magical mine moppets" enhance the title for this book. It seems to have an interesting storyline that children will enjoy.

This sounds like a great book for children, especially for the age of child that is learning to read by and for themselves, rather than with a parent. I agree with you - children's books can never have too many pictures! Thank you for your review.
