Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Cozy Classics: Oliver Twist
Jack Wang · 2017
55/100
👎 Skip It
The needle-felted dioramas are genuinely charming and it's a cute way to put a classic character in front of a baby, but with only twelve words on offer there's no real story happening yet. Think keepsake gift, not a book you'll read for the plot. Cute on a shelf, thin in the hands.
