"...a story well worth reading." The Great & the Small by @torreybalsara.bsky.social via Midwest Book Review and @storymonsters.bsky.social #YABooks #TheGreatAndTheSmall #YABook #CanKidLit

THE GREAT AND THE SMALL - REVIEW

"This is a modern-day take on the old story of the Plague of long ago, with a twist of a human interacting with an animal. It includes a bit of history wrapped up in fantasy, resulting in a story well worth reading."
