The first time I read this book, I was... oh, about ten or twelve. It came in a large pile of five-cent books at a flea market and was missing both the covers, so I had no idea what I was getting into when I opened it. All I knew was that it said "Tomorrow's Sphinx" on the spine, with this itty bitty icon of a black...

But, my family didn't...

My first grader decided she was done with picture books and ready for chapter books and these were the books she chose for me to read to her. I was not excited to read these and it honestly took me a while to get into the rhythm of the story and all it's sugary sweetness. Thankfully they did grow on me as we went...
