I really loved the illustrations in this book, they brought the story to life. The story was amazing and it came to life. There was a story within a story.

This book is about a girl called Jub. She lives in a forest and her job is to gather the happy endings from stories at dusk and take them from one end of the forest to the other before everyone’s bedtime. In the morning she does all her jobs and then goes and collect the happy endings once again to get them ready for the evening. However, one evening when Jub goes to the forest with the sack of happy endings something terrible happens. Jub has an accident and the endings are stolen! What will happen to the sack of happy endings and what will Jub do about this problem? Both the pictures and writing in this book are beautiful and I very much enjoyed it.

It is a picture book but for children who like longer, more difficult to understand stories. The pictures are lovely too.
