This story is definitely a fast-paced, adventure filled read. Even though Robbie is a girl, I can see this appealing to both boys and girls, as her quartet of outlaws is made up of two of each. Because of its pace and social justice storyline, it would be a great choice for reluctant readers

wanting to start a new novel and great lead to fairytales in the classroom. However, not being in the target reading market, I did wish there had been a bit more exploration into the story of this charm of Robbie's. All in all, a fast and fun read.
