Recommend this book to people who enjoy reading books with rescues in it. My favourite part was when Joe got trapped in the land with the snowman and was treated as a slave. I enjoyed it when his friends had to come and rescue him.

My favourite character was moonface. I liked how they mixed the fairytales in.
Sir Cornelius Vegas 10.12.2023
I liked moonface the best. I would recommend this to people who liked the faraway tree because it has little adventures with the characters.

I expected more adventure but it was a little bit boring.
Sir Ice-T Bucket 26.08.2023
I loved this book but I would have liked it to be a bit longer
Lady Mistral Windchime 23.08.2023
In this story I felt that joe was a bit sneaky and adventurous and because of him their sisters and Moon - Face had travel a lot to get to the land of ice and snow and to tell they even met Goldilocks and the three bears and they got some help from them to well then imagine you meeting Goldilocks and the three bears and about joe it was horrible for him to be there because of the ice , snow and the magic snowman who told him to do horrible jobs like cutting ice or even things and made him a slave .
Queen Orchid Toothpaste 12.08.2023

Countess Blossom Paddington 03.08.2023
I enyoyed reading about all characters in the book.
Lady Kiki Mouse 24.07.2023
It was extraordinary when Frannie, Beth, Moon-face, Goldilocks and the three bears teleported the house to the Land of Ice and Snow. I liked Moon-face best mostly because it was hilarious when the snowballs splatted him on the face. I would recommend it as it was funny when Moon-face said “Ooble ooble oooble!” while trying to stop Joe from going into the Land of Ice and Snow.
