Impossible Creatures

Katherine Rundell

Knopf Books for Young Readers/PRH


    This is that rare children's book that parents will be asking to read to their children (and their kids will love). It is a great adventure story involving mythical creatures and very real humans, moving relentlessly toward a climax of sadness and strength. It is also a somber look at what can happen when humans give in to greed.

    It is also a very optimistic look at how people can, through courage and friendship, protect ourselves and those who share our world, or their own.

    A lovely family gift.
