Yes, you are right about the mix of animal and human stories. Two of the stories featured the twin girls and two were insects only, with some references to humans. Thanks so much for taking the time to share some thoughts.ButterscotchCherrie wrote: ↑06 Oct 2018, 02:36 I often find myself gravitating to the 2-star rating when I feel a book has good potential but has lost something in the execution. As the guidelines say, 2 is "kind of ambiguous". From the names, I was a little confused about whether this was about anthropomorphic animals like Doug the slug or Somby the snail, but there seemed to be human children too. Maybe that is also a mix? I hope that the book can be edited to live up to its potential better. Thanks for an interesting review.
