Reviews
Humourous Little Tale
Alessandro Serenelli
This tale, written by a young girl, is worth the short amount of time it takes. It is amusing and occasionally reminds one of the social satire in Oscar Wilde's comedies. The reader does a nice job l, but there is a brief technical blip just before 34:00 in Chapters 1-6. I don't know if this can be fixed, but I thought I'd mention it.
A fun romp and a great mirror to adult behavior
