Mom's review of Flora and Ulysses

I didn't love this book as an adult. I thought it was kind of silly. However, I thought it was great as a kids book. It was funny an engaging. The comics really added to the story.

I also liked that there was a lot of advanced vocabulary included but it was sort of secondary to the story. I felt like a child could understand the story without understanding the advanced words, but might be encouraged to learn the words.

I liked how the characters changed throughout the story, and especially the lesson that the mother learned in the end.
