This was adorable little tale, but I do think that, based on the ages of the children, some of the things they say are more likely what an adult would say in the same situation. For example, at the very beginning Alex says that moving to a new home might be an adventure. I don't doubt that some children will think so, but it's more likely that an adult would tell a child this in an attempt to ease the transition.

I also enjoyed how educational it was without being boring. I can easily see children reading this book with pleasure.
