Happy Customer –
Hello
I used your fairy tale mystery with 16 of my family this Christmas. It was fantastic as it was funny without needing insinuations. It was suitable for the teenagers and older ones. Some of the family had not met before and the use of fairy tale characters meant that we could all quickly grasp the nature and back story of the characters.
Thank you very much,
Ann
