A lovely tale in the true style of Neil Gaiman...the creative imaginative nature of childhood innocence with the fears that accompany this innocence. Some great lines about the difference between adults and children are often no more than size, but certainly not in behavior. Plus, it was great to hear Neil Gaiman narrate the book.

A wonderful storyteller with vivid imagery.
I listened to the audiobook which was narrated by the author and it was excellent.
A mystical look at childhood.
Not my usual genre but I thought this was really well done.
