While ultimately Leo and the Gorgon's Curse is a feelgood short it achieves its amiability without ever being frothy or superficial in delivery. There's lots for the younger reader to take away and consider. -- Andy Oliver * Broken Frontier * Amazing storytelling. -- Thisgeordieteaches on Instagram
