Wonderful multi scenery story sitting somewhere between fantasy, historical fiction, and Sci-Fi(ish) due to those. Sweet, with some tongue-in-cheek moments, and the typical writing style of 'a Mason story' which I personally very much enjoy. I also like a good story with a moral, be it a Christmas story or any other kind of fable or parable, or allegory.

Suitable for all ages, I think (I have no kids, so maybe not the best judge for that, I can only say I'd had read it as a kid, but I read basically anything, encyclopedias and classics of all sorts included, when I was a kid).

There are a few typos in this story, but nothing too big of a deal - none of them trips you seriously up - and it also aren't many.
