What an entertaining and fun review! This book sounds adorable. I love that a wooden character has a thing for fire.

This book is now the book of the day, how cool! The story sounds very unique. I also loved your comment about the hiccups. Books that make you feel, smile, and laugh are great! :)

Congratulations to the author for the great review, and for being chosen for the book of the day! :tiphat:

Isn't it great when a book you have reviewed makes the Book of the Day? I really love the sound of this one. The tree who is obsessed with fire makes me think of a certain snowman who loves summer ;) I will be adding this one to my library. Thank you for the great review.
