Review:
This was a fun story following Carter, a young boy who runs away from a terrible relative and ends up finding friends and adventure waiting for him. This was obviously aimed at younger readers but I was still able to enjoy it and found myself rooting for the kids along the way. It was a cute story, with a good plot and likable characters. It was a very easy read and I am definitely planning to continue on with the series.

I gave this book 4 and a half out of 5 stars.
