I was utterly charmed by this story. From the magical children to the adults who care about the kids, it's just a balm for my soul and I'm looking forward to rereading this one again. Lucy is standout hilarious, Linus and Arthur are delightful together and Sal will break your heart. Comfort reading at its finest!
