This was a darling little book about a magic cafe where wonderful and frankly strange things happen - I discovered Cynthia Rylant’s bible picture books at the library and loved their simplicity and poignancy. This short middle-grade novel was full of wonder and meaning, while also being simple and poignant. I’ll be purchasing this for Annie to read one day! It was charming, had two well developed characters and an entertaining story, all within 53 pages.
