Lovely gentle story and narration

Great gentle listen.
Life exists around us and it can be missed if we view life through a lense

Short and Sweet

This story gave me the perfect cozy and magical feeling that I was hoping for.
Sometimes it doesn't take much to make a big impact.

Beautiful

This was so lovely to listen to, I didn't want it to end. Left wondering how many ways this story could go.

Very nice but sooo short

I’d loved to get a bit more of this. I understand the message doesn’t need to have loads of words or pages but even fairy tales can be of some length. I always was disappointed if they ended after a few minutes maybe I need to spin my own sequel to this delightful story. The narrator was fitting perfectly so another reason to listen to more of this.

So short

Literally last only a few minutes. Reads like a quick prologue. A hint of what could be a pretty story

The preface

That’s it. An introduction. A teaser if you will. A flutter by. A wispy wanting little thing.

Insufferable main character

Jasmin sounds insufferable, to be honest. Because of that, I couldn't enjoy this short story at all. I'd say it's aimed at kids, but do you really want kids to identify with this bored, rolling her eyes, sarcastic girl? Just ugh. it reminds me of all those Disney/Nickelodeon shows where the kids are constantly quipping one put-down after another.

Narration is good.
