This is so cute! I always love this style of book (unsure if there's a name for the distinct square, illustrated-on-every-page adaptations of classics, but this is the second time I've seen a 'series' with those exact qualities), and since Esther is my favorite Biblical story, I figured I should give...

I liked the idea of this book, and I really liked the first few chapters. The kids lost interest a bit through the middle, and I had to encourage them along, and then the last third of the book picked up again. I like the writing style well enough, but allow me to explain the low rating.
1. Seeing as...
