Review
This was a children’s book which I don’t normally read but this one was very cute. The main character the nephew of “Uncle Chestnut was really instrumental in helping the reader understand the idiosyncrasies of Uncle Chestnut. Also the stories made me wish I had an uncle like Uncle Chestnut!
Before I read this book I had no idea who G.K Chesterton was but this book piqued my interest.
Over all a pretty good book for a children’s book!
4/5 Children’s
