Loved the purple baby
I loved when they had purple baby, because Smeds were red and Smoos blue and this together makes purple.
I would recommend this book to Emily.
I love the story because the smeds and the smoos finally became good together. The story is fun.
I like the main characters, they are brave. And I am happy with the ending.
It’s about two sets of people that don’t get an along but then come together to find there children and end up being family at the end and all getting along .
