Hereville: how Mirka got her sword

Review by Hulk

Hereville was such a good book because it had a lot of adventure, funny situations and it had a pretty decent amount of characters. Mirka was very brave and kind. However, her stepmother, Fruma was a little bit strict to Mirka. If you wonder what kind of book it is, it is a comic book with 144 pages. I recommend this book to kids who like adventure and beast slaying! If you do get this book, I hope you enjoy it!
