Children of the Wild by Krysta Tawlks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Children of the Wild (Children of the Wild Series) by Krysta Tawlks is a young adult fantasy
In a quaint early 20th-century farm town, young Elbert enjoys his ordinary life with his ordinary family. Or so he thinks. One day, a burning sensation digs into his chest, gentle breezes chafe his skin, and water stings. Soon, feathers sprout across his body. He discovers magic in the hills, and mighty creatures lurking near the river. And Elbert might be one of them. But only he can decide whether to grow the magic spark within himself or let it snuff out. This poignant story follows a boy struggling with self-doubt and grief, and the ones who give him hope enough to break a curse.
Every page had you hanging on every sentence and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. It is a very unique story with even compelling people. The story transports you into this world. I couldn’t put the book down.
