A somewhat bizarre book, yet memorably enchanting and quirky. The illustrations are fantastic and unique (though the little lemon "children" look pretty funny to me) and the story includes positive messages about facing fears, growing up, and trying things out of your comfort zone—yet ends somewhat abruptly.
