I loved this book and I'm not a child, I think all readers of any age will enjoy it. Tinsey Clover, a twelve year old girl Elf is determine to find someone like her because she feels like an outsider in her own village. She is smart, brave, and she can't carry a tune in a bucket! Her adventure includes being rescued by a Troll and hopes that he will not eat her. Then they both go looking for the dragon that she is sure that burnt her village and stole their gem. ( )

What a fun children's book. My niece will enjoy this book. For the older children this book can be read mostly by themselves as there are not a ton of large words. This is an important factor for children's books. In addition, to this factor, the characters and storyline were great.

Tinsey and all of the forest animals were intriguing. I can't really pick a favorite as each one was unique in their own way. I just wanted to hang out in the forest forever with Tinsey. She really opened up and came into her own with her new friends.

This is a quick read. Chelsea Walker Flagg delights children with Tinsey Clover. ( )
