Mr. Barsins’ Toy Emporium by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Kerry Baker

Mr. Barsins’ Toy Emporium by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I didn’t realise when starting this book it was a Lois Wickstrom one, but it didn’t take me long to figure it out. The writing style is so indicative of the fantastic writing I have come to expect from her. It is intended for a slightly older audience than some of her others books but it was just as imaginative and interesting. This is one that I haven’t yet read to my kids as they are a little young to understand it. However, this is one that I will be keeping in my back pocket for the second they are old enough to enjoy it and appreciate it.
It took me no time at all to get through this book. It was full of interesting characters that added depth and complexity to the story. It was enjoyable and a brilliant read. This is a book that would appeal to all audiences.
