Like Oz for a new century. Our heroine, September, climbs aboard the Jaguar of the Green Wind and takes off for Fairyland where she makes friends, and an enemy. From a wild herd of Velocipedes, and yetis angry at the moon, to A-through-L the Wyverary (half-wyvern, half-library), and Blunderbuss the Combat Wombat, Valente’s imagination is unparalleled and her storytelling skills are formidable as she mixes wild whimsy with real heartache and growing up. Suggested for 9 years and older.
The Girl Who Circumnavigate Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making by Catherynne M. Valente
