Review:

Mockingbird in Mark Twain’s Hat by Kaia Alexander is a great adventure story with a Mark Twain approach. I loved how easy-to-read this book was. I enjoyed the many exciting adventures that the little Wynne, mockingbird went through as the pages flew by. I enjoyed the southern dialect that is commonly found in Mark Twain’s books. Children and even adults will love this sweet story. Any fan of classics will enjoy reading Kaia Alexander’s book.
