What-the-Dickens: The Story of a Rogue Tooth Fairy Audiobook

" I enjoyed the book, wasn't something you couldn't put down but a good read. "

" This was to be a bedtime story book for me to read to the kids, but we had to put it down. We weren't enjoying it. It felt odd and slow. "

" I wanted to like this! But it was slow and just didn't hook me. "

" This book was a nice look at the life of tooth fairies and the power of storytelling. It didn't wow me enough that I would recommend it, but it was an enjoyable read. "

" Fun book, good for younger tween-agers and mature children. "

" Hummm, he wrote this for a kid I am sure...not really my cup of tea. "

" I really didn't enjoy this book. I thought the premise was appealing, but within the first few chapters I didn't think I was going to like it. I didn't like how it was written. And when it finally ended I felt that nothing had happened that I'd liked. Very disappointing. "

" Maguire is a master of imagination... this is a wonderful dream within a dream. "

" I really liked this version of the tooth fairy story. "

" Gregory Maguire is, of course, brilliant, and I love this "practical" story of fairies! And tooth fairies at that! This book is funny, but not as interesting to an adult as to a child. "

" This is the first book I read on my kindle. It was a fun story. I liked this much better than "Wicked". "

" Although I really enjoyed The Wicked series by Gregory Maguire - this one just didn't seem to hold my interest. "

" Cute book about a tooth fairy. Easiest Maguire book to read- probably because it's written for kids. Still loved it> "

" This is a young adult book about tooth fairies. It's kind of cute- the general line is that some tooth fairy accidentally is born outside of tooth fairy culture and is never properly socialized so he makes all sorts of innocent and endearing mistakes. "

" This book was soooooooo boring! I hated it! "

" This was a cute story. I enjoyed listening to the story of the skiberdee. But. Sing a mom made it hard to forget about the kids stuck on he mountain with no power or food. I'm going to imagine they found their parents and everything turned out happily ever after! "

" interesting read thus far. it's been helping me through the commute "

" YA book & would have been better if Holly Black wrote it but still, pretty satisfying. "

" This book was a fun read. A bit different from Gregory Maguire's other books I've read, but only because it is geared to children. It still has the same level of creativity I enjoy in all his books. "

" I thought it was a little boring and was not too impressed. I did like it enough to finish and it was an easy read... "

" Children's tale with some imagination. Fast learning tooth fairies with rules, and heirarchies, and storytime during a storm. "

" A cute story about finding where you fit in and breaking out of empty tradition. "

" This is a really cute book about an orphaned Skibberee, a tooth fairy, who can't figure out who, or what, he is, or what he's supposed to do. Being born in a tuna can, thinking that his mother is a cat who was trying to eat him, he's not exactly off to a great start! "

" it was a little hard to get into, but once I did i enjoyed this book. "

" This was sort of bland - no real punch during or resolution at the end. "

" Even though the story of the Skibberee was original and I enjoyed the story-within-a-story aspect, this was just an OK read for me. I much preferred Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister to What the Dickens. "

" i don't know if it is the pacing, the characters or the writing, but i couldn't get into this book. i wanted to like it because i loved wicked, but i guess my distractions are too great. "

" Didnt love it but it was ok and other will love it Im sure. I liked the 2nd half of the book the best. "

" This story within a story doesn't weave together as well as I would have liked. Unfortunate, as the fairy tale of the skibbereen is thoroughly enjoyable. Had the two pieces melded together more significantly, this would have been a far better read. "

" This was a cool read. I liked it...the characters, the story within a story...all Gregory Maguire style. Very good! "

" Totally fun, but started very slow. It's now quite funny for me to read McGuire because I LAUGH at any and all references to The Wizard of Oz. "

" Fun little story. Geared for a younger audience than the Wicked trilogy, the prose and plot were more stream lined, but I though the author's use of cliches was a bit over the top. "

" I want those hours of my life back I wasted reading this book Gregory Maguire. Such a lame, pointless book. The title was so great I thought it had such promise... so disappointed. Why did I finish it? "
