Reviews
I liked this book because (in my opinion) it taught the main character a life lesson. You don't need magic to be happy. My favourite character was Mr Miraballs because he is such a lovely and caring character. I would definitely recommend this book to my cousin because she loves fantasy and animal stories.

It was really cool and had mysterious adventures. It was a fiction book and my favourite character was Thomaz. Yes, I would recommend it to my brother and my friend.

I think the book is interesting because it is about a magic dog. My favourite character is the magic dog. I would recommend this book from all my heart.
