“For one thing, i do not like things that crawl especially mice, but if i was to be trapped in a dungeon full of evil dangerous rats, being ordered around by one with a gold spoon on his head and a red table cloth wrapped around his neck, i would love to be friends with a mouse! This book talks about the power love has even in impossible situations. Sometimes, we all have to be brave sometime in our lives... right?”

“If Mr. Bennet ever wrote a book, this is it. It's just... there needs to be a better word for "friggn' awesome".

Over all a great use of symbolism.”
