I never heard of this non-fiction book series before, but I like how short and simple their books look. Let's take a gander.

This one has been on my to-read list for quite some time! I recently watched the animated show based on it, which sparked my interest for the book even more. Spoilers ahead.
Note:
The title of this book has been translated into English by me for the
reading comprehension of this blog's viewers as the book itself isn't
available in English (yet). The original title reads De Efteling: Kroniek van een sprookje
Okay, so, poorly-kept Alex secret: I love theme parks. I've visited quite a few in my time and while I love most, my favorite always will remain one in my home-country of the Netherlands: The Efteling, a fantasy/folklore/fairy tale-based theme park. I've visited it quite a few times and still try to visit it at least once per year if I can. It's definitely a family park, but it also has some rides for thrill-seekers such as myself. But even discounting the thrills, it's just a beautifully themed park with a lot of nature in it, and I adore most rides.
So when I saw that there was this huge book covering the park's entire history (well, up until the point the book got published, anyways), I had to grab it. Let's have a look.
This is a prequel/midquel/short story collection based on the book Luna the Lone Wolf, which I have reviewed before. Let's take a look! Note that this review contains both spoilers for this book and Luna.
I already read and reviewed the dog counterpart to this book...so let's take a look at the cat version here instead!
Never thought I'd consider reading mole xenofiction since I don't really have a particular interest in the animals, but it did look engaging to me. So let's have a look, spoilers ahead.
