Customer Reviews

An well done effort to bring virtuality into real world...

Santiago, my 5 yr old son, and I, have read the spanish version of the book. We were able to follow the adventures of the three kids inside the Internet looking for the mother's image... We have been pleased by the carefully made presentation of the photographs and the book. I was forced many times to repeat that it was just a tale, not real, otherwise my son would have been really frightened!
