This is a very good example of modern fantasy because it has characters and a plot that are very unrealistic in the real world but made believable by the author giving them human characteristics and dialogue throughout the entire book. It's an excellent book in how it depicts the love a child has for the mother and the love a mother has for her child. The setting is not specifically stated within the text but can be easily seen through the illustrations.The little country farm that the story is placed in gives a peaceful tone to the story and the text.
