i read about this train crashing into this girl’s house . It was exciting how Suzy and Fletch traveled into Trollvile. They captured the old lady’s brother and turned him into a frog. I liked Wilmot because he saved Suzy and took her to many places. I would like to recommend this to someone because it is a very interesting story.

I liked Suzy the best because she helped the trolls while they delivered the post. I recommend this book to people who are From 9 to 12.

I would recommend this book to people who like action. It gets you very locked in to the book from the start. It gradually gets more and more exciting. There is a colossal building of excitement in the book. P.G Bell and Flavia Sorrentino are both geniuses.

I loved this book. I loved the part when they went to meet the pirates under the sea. I also like when the girl ( I forgot her name) delivers the package and finds a tiny boy inside! This book is really good.

This book was funny and confusing. The ending puzzled me. I would recommend this to people who love adventure stories

This book was funny and mysterious. I think it is an 7+ book due to the hard language but this book was a wild tale. I would recommend this to people who love Steam trains and fun.

Even though it is a very long book, it is great to read and has a great story line. It is about a girl called Suzy who loved physics and then she climbed aboard the impossible postal express for a gut wrenching, heart pounding adventure with the fate of the impossible places in her hands...

This story is about a girl, a troll, a train, a cursed delivery package, and then some twins.My favourite character is Wilmot because he is kind.(He is a troll). I thought Fletch was a human at first. I thought Suzy gave the material back to Fletch the troll. I would recommend it to people who like scary and adventurous stories.
