While my son does love to read, this was a little bit mature for his tastes. This book however I can squarely tie into one recommender, my 8 year old son! Of course the fact that Sourcebooks Jabberwocky, noted publisher of many excellent volumes including hers was exceptionally nice in connecting us did not hurt.įor those of you who don’t know, I am a middle school library media specialist who absolutely loves books! I have been involved with Florida’s Sunshine State Young Readers Award committee for nearly 10 years, currently serving as a scout and future selections coordinator and in that capacity I am always discovering amazing reads. First of all as I will share in a moment, my mechanism of connecting of her book was a bit unusual for me, while secondly as we are both Boston area college graduates and I was planning a trip to Boston shortly, it just seemed kismet. I chose to begin with author Skylar Dorset for several reasons. And the only way for Selkie to survive.is to prove them right.And we’re back after a brief hiatus with a brand new feature called “What’s the 5-1-1?” In this new interview feature we will alternate between authors and librarians and technology visionaries asking them five somewhat serious questions, followed by one nice and frivolous fun question, and then giving the subject the chance to shoot a question back at this interviewer and/or his students! The faerie court believes Selkie is a child of prophecy-fated to destroy the court's powerful grip on the supernatural world. But the instant she blurts out the truth, her whole world shatters.īecause the world she's known is only an elaborate enchantment designed to conceal the truth: Selkie is a half-faerie princess. All she wanted a simple "Happy Birthday" from her secret crush, Ben. On Selkie's seventeenth birthday, Selkie finally understands why. And you never, ever reveal your birth date.


In Selkie's family, you don't celebrate birthdays. "Romantic, suspenseful, and witty all at once-Alice in Wonderland meets Neverwhere."-Claudia Gray, New York Times bestselling author of the Evernight series IsPublicPerformanceAllowed False languages OverDrive Product Record readingOrder 1 images
