My Never Ending List
My Never Ending List rated it 6 years ago
Wow, I didn’t expect such emotions from this book. This is one of the those books I wished I would have read the synopsis again before reading, and to think that this came from a children’s book. Great work, Brian Lies, great job! Evan, the fox and his dog did everything together. They had such a ...
