This book, Dora, is brought to us by the author of the beloved children's classic, Heidi. Like Heidi, Dora is about a young orphan girl in Switzerland. It simply is not as good as Heidi. It is not a bad book, but the characters lack the charm and depth of the more famous book.
Everything felt familiar, like I had read it all before. Even though it lacked a spark of originality, I enjoyed reading this book. It was quick and fun - a pancake kind of a book. Young girls who enjoy Heidi will probably also enjoy this one.
Genre: Children's Fiction
Age Range: Probably about 10
Length: Mediumish - simple language
Additional Comments: It may be a little better than I have described it to be. It is not a bad book, simply not an excellent one.
