My first impression of this book,The Kalelah Series,was that reality must be suspended right away and get your mindset on some weirdness,It sounded ,in my reading ears,like a documentary like tone ,if that makes sense to anybody but me .But then you have relationships going and it gets interesting.I did see a few words that I wouldn't have the kiddos read but I sure would.The cover of the book is a nice harbinger ,kind of watery looking.
