The Night Gardener felt like an extended Grimms story, and that's just about the highest compliment I could give a book like this. It has an excellent creepy atmosphere combined with quality writing and a decent amount of heart, all coming together to make a very enjoyable dark fable.
Such a good, scary, creepy...yarn of a story. HIGHLY recommend, but for age 12+.
This is a great book for kids who love MURDER, which almost all kids do.
Also it's a great story about the power of stories and love and the dangers of GREED and EVIL TREES.
Also it's pretty scary eeekkk
