I received this book from the publisher/Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

🐶 Mattie was such a fun and cute character and I was rooting for her. I know the feeling of being judged for your madcap adventures, though for most of the book I just saw a girl who had big plans and executed them to almost perfect. The only one that didn’t work out that well was the ferret, but even that one we learn is not entirely her fault. The old man should have warned them that this may happen. Mattie really has her heart in the right place and I love how she immediately went to help out the new vet and also tried to help out with the animals that needed to rehomed. She wanted to give them all a chance and there was no day that she was bored, she just kept going.
🐶 The various animals we meet were adorable! The hamsters of course my favourite, but followed by Luna the little dog that Mattie and her friends found, and the dream dog for Mattie.
🐶 Rooting so hard that Luna and Mattie would be together and that her dad would see that Mattie had some madcap ideas but that she was really trying. It was just so clear that these two had to be together, Mattie had endless wells of love and the dog wanted to be with her.
🐶 Reading about the small town that Mattie and her friends lived in + also read about fete and all that came with that! There were quite a few times that I wished I could just step inside the book and be part of this small town.
🐶 The plan that Mattie, Zoe, Casper made for the fete and for the vet practice! They really thought of everything and while there was a bit of drama because someone immediately got judgemental things went off without a problem after that. I loved seeing them work hard to get the plan to become real, and I absolutely loved seeing the day that everything came together. They really did an amazing job and I I hope that the town loves their new critters.
🐶 That moment at the end with the dad. OMG, I was crying so hard then. I won’t spoiled anything, but I was just so happy.
🐶 The illustrations were so cute!
🐶 Zoe and Casper were fun characters.
🐶 I love that the vicar was a woman! This may sound odd, but most vicars/preachers I know are guys, generally older. So I am delighted that here it is a woman.
🐶 The ending made me smile and now I definitely want more books!
🐶 The kids having a tree house! And not just a small one but a pretty fun decent sized one! As a kid I always wanted a tree house, but sadly my parents’ garden was too small for a tree. And even in my current home a full grown tree is just not going to work, there is not that much room + I am sure the neighbours are not going to be happy with a giant tree. XD

All in all, I had oodles of fun reading this one! A MC to root for, cute critters, lots of fun adventures, and more~
