Mj Murray never seems to disappoint in her books. Amese of Animalis is a children’s chapter book that is gear for 10-14 year olds. I believe if you love a good book with magic with adventure, you will enjoy it as well. The detailing is great. The world building is amazing. I can’t wait for the next book.

Amese is a young girl who lives in Animalis with her family, she is the daughter of one of the six Guardians of the land who use elemental magic to keep the balance within the world and for generations, this responsibility is passed down to the child who is marked and this generation, Amese is the next in line.
Although she has this future responsibility, Amese doesn’t want it and she struggles to see why she has been chosen, especially when her siblings seem more suitable, but it is time for her to start her training to prepare her to rule, and so she reluctantly goes along with it.
Part of her training involves attending the Gatherings of the six Guardians and even though she knows they are supposed to work together, she can sense a rift forming between them, but the most exciting part of her training is a ritual using the symbol of Animalis, the jewel toned orchid bee who choose the animal she must transform into so that she can learn the lesson she needs to help her rule.
What lessons will Amese learn during her transformations, and can she figure out who or what is causing the rift between the Guardians? This is an exciting adventure which is full of magic, balance and some suspense as you transform along with Amese as you follow along on this journey of self-discovery.

I’ve read a few books by this author before, but this one is definitely my favorite so far! My oldest kiddo is 12 years old, so this was right up her alley. We read it together and really enjoyed it. It took us a bit to find our groove, but once we did, we couldn’t stop! Even though this is targeted to the 10–14-year-old range, I found myself just as immersed in it as my daughter was. This author did an incredible job with the flow of the story. Amese was wonderfully relatable as a teen girl finding her way. We can’t wait to see what the rest of the series has in store because we are hooked! I highly recommend picking this up for the young ones in your life.

Amese of Animalis is a fantastic youth chapter book that creates a world within our world of beings who are not humans, but maintain magic within earth. Amese is the daughter of the leader of one realm, a teenager coming of age with the pressures of being the future ruler quickly approaching. Amese has to accept and complete apprenticeship training, but in the meantime, as a member of Anamalis, the animal realm, Amese experiences life as various animals, taking lessons from them as she goes. This is an intriguing read, something I think my son will love- I can’t wait to get him started on the series (and, I can’t wait to find out what happens next!).

I love the dedication in the book: To anyone who doesn’t have life all figured out. Neither do I. Let’s enjoy the journey anyway.” This is such a great story for kids ages 10 and up, (even adults). Amese is 13 and I like that her personality showed her young but also mature when she needed to. I love that there is different magic in this story, we get to meet some other characters who are with earth, water, and air. Amese’s village is all about connecting with animals. I liked the lessons Amese has received with each animal, and I love that they have helped her start to find herself. It’s also pretty cool that she gets a marking of the animal (like a tattoo) after the lesson. Overall I feel if you love fantasy or want to introduce your kids into fantasy this is a great book to read. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Amese of Animalis is Book One in the Borosa Legacy Series. It is a children’s fantasy book designed for children between the ages of ten to fourteen years of age. The story centers around the main character of a 13-year-old girl named Amese who is learning the skills to be a Guardian. This is a huge responsibility that she does not feel that she is ready for. Amese must muster up all the courage that she can to overcome her doubts and fears to gain the confidence that she needs. Not only does she have to prove to herself, but she must prove to others that she has the skills and the abilities that are needed. This was a fun read that was full of adventure, magic, action mystery, and a smidge of danger. I loved how Amese was able to change into different animals as well as how with each animal that she transforms into she learns a lesson along the way. This was a great coming of age story with lessons about courage, strength and self-discovery. This book had great characters, a unique storyline, and fantastic world building with vivid scene descriptions.

After reading the Detective Dylan and the Hunt for Home Plate another Chapter Book by this author.( which the kiddos love ) I had to check this out. This is the first book from The Borosa Legacy following Amese who is 13 years old who’s trying to figure out her abilities and her destiny. We made quick work of this magic filled adventure, just like the other book. After the Cliffhanger we definitely can’t wait for this next part to come. What another great book from this author. I highly suggest getting and reading with the kiddos You will not regret it. 🥰

This is the first book from The Borosa Legacy series. I enjoyed the idea of enchanted bees in this story and it captured my attention from the beginning. Amese of Animalis is full of adventure and magic. This novel is targeted for 10-14 year olds but I enjoyed reading it as an adult!

Amese of Animalis (The Borosa Legacy Book 1) by MJ Murray. This is the first book of the Borosa Legacy Series and its about Amese who bears the birthmark of Borosa. Amese who is 13 is about to begin her training to fulfill her destiny as a ruler. Amese is so independent and strong but she does have insecurities as well. She has this dark feeling that someone does not want her to succeed. Amese has to turn into animals to fulfill her destiny and in doing so she learns so much about all kinds of animals and their cultures. Will she be able to conquer her fears and become all that she is destined to be? This book is aimed at kids 11-13 and is such a fun, imaginative read. I recommend this book for all kids in this age group.

This is the first book from The Borosa Legacy. Amese is just 13 years old and is to become the next potentate. But she’s not confident in herself or her abilities. She hasn’t even figured out what her magic is. But something is happening and she needs to start her training. Grab this book and come along on her adventures. This is targeted for 10-14 year olds but I think it can be enjoyed by the young at heart as well. Very well written story and I can’t wait for the next book.

Amese knows she and her family are special. That doesn’t make her life easier, knowing she is destined to be a guardian. She must begin her guardian training, but she doesn’t feel like she’s ready. Can she make her family and people proud and become the guardian she was born to become? This is a great book focusing on having confidence in oneself.

Amese of Animalis by MJ Murray is the first book in The Borosa Legacy Series. This book is written with readers 10-14 in mind, but can be read by anyone who enjoys a good story with lots of magic and adventure. We are following 13-year-old Amese. She is training to rule, and trying to convince others she is worthy of the task. It seems like not everyone wants her to succeed in this quest. The story is fun and magical. She has to turn into animals for her training which is really cool. The story ends on a cliff hanger and I am looking forward to the next book 4 out of 5 stars.

This story is the interesting journey of Amese, a young teenager learning how she must rule her part of the universe. Amese must discover secrets, secrets her family is hiding and secrets of magic. Amese must learn how to use this information to keep peace for all creatures everywhere and the six guardians of the ancient magic. This is a fun story for pre teens. I loved all the animals involved. Amese’s family and friends are entertaining as well.

I enjoyed this story. The story of how Amese finds not only her purpose but also herself was very interesting and held my interest. The journey for Amese had a few twists and turns but everything thing turned out okay in the end. There was a bit of a twist at the end, so I am thinking that Amese’s story is not over and I look forward to reading the next book.

This is a very enchanting tale ,a fun children fantasy story, book full of magic, elemental guardians who balance life and full of animalistic powers. Amese is a 13 year old who reluctantly steps up to be an elemental guardian. Now she is on an epic adventure understanding other animal cultures and traditions. In her growth and transformation, she has a feeling that she has many enemies who are waiting to shove her down, a feeling, we all very well can connect to. But her newly made friends help her see the way. It is a wonderful story, I so loved it and was able to connect to it. Cannot wait to read the sequels.

The Borosa Legacy book 1 was a great read. My children and I read the book together enjoying the adventure and self discovery that Amese went through. Young and old readers can thoroughly enjoy this book. It got many different life lesson conversations going during our reading. A book that fosters interest and conversation is always a plus as a parent.
At only 13 Amese is being trained to be the next to rule. She encounters lessons in turning into animals and more throughout her journey. Will she succeed or fail?

Amese of Animalis is Book 1 of The Borosa Legacy series and this was a fun story filled with magic, elements, adventure, decisions and destiny. The author does a great job in the storytelling and really brings this book to life. This book is aimed for ages 10-14 and can also be enjoyed for the young at heart. I am looking forward to seeing what is next….
Amese is a mere 13 year old girl who is destined to do great things. While she may at times not feel that way and has self doubt….she knows she also has to learn new skills to become a guardian. As Amese begins her journey, she transforms into different animals with lessons to be learned along the way…..to learn and become worthy at her best…
I do not want to give any spoilers away…but this is very good story and I highly recommend giving this author and book some love.

I read this with my 7yo and we both enjoyed it. What’s not to love? Magic, adventure, mishaps, and strength of character. There were a lot of life lessons in this story, but they weren’t overwhelming or boring. This was a great coming of age story where courage is tested. Amese is a fantastic character. We can’t wait for more in the series.

What a brilliant fantasy book for youngsters. The journey that Amese is on to train to become the Potentate has her learning many valuable lessons. She is trying to get control over her magic as she is training. The lessons learned in this fun imaginative way gives the reader reminders that we are able to overcome our own self doubt. We are stronger than we know. Great story for readers of all ages as I enjoyed following Amese on her journey.

Amese has some big shoes to fill and she’s not sure that she really wants to take on the responsibility. The orchid bees have given her a series of assignments or trainings that she needs to complete in order to become the next potentate. Amese has to make some critical decisions as she goes through these trainings.
This was a very enjoyable book and I look forward to more in this series. Check out the beautiful cover of this book as well! I love the vibrant images and colors!!

The Borosa Legacy Book 1 is a great read I read with my daughter together and she loved it. Amese is a teen who is about to start her training to become the next potentate but doesn’t seem so sure she wants be the next potentate. Amese takes lessons to change into animal form and live like they do until her lesson is learned and she can return to her body. She has become a pelican, a wolf and a badger One of the conversations with her mother I loved a lot. Her mother told her that if she was going to quit, it needed to be after a good day of training not a bad one. That is was easy to quit when something is hard. Seems like not everyone wants to see her succeed and something is going on. The book was getting good and left us on a cliffhanger. I cant wait for the next book!!

Amese of Animalis is the first book in The Borosa Legacy. A wonderfully written fun fantasy book for your middle aged (10-14) experienced reader. Its full of magic, adventure, and action, mystery and so very much more. Amese, who bears the birthmark of Borosa is about to begin an epic adventure, as she is to become a guardian. So many wonderful characters and creatures, all are well devolped. My grandson is 11 and he really loved this book. We can’t wait for book #2.

Geared for the younger kids, I really enjoyed this book. Amese is having a hard time deciding if she wants to step up into her predestined role to help her mom. Throughout her story, she is training. This training consists of turning into different animals chosen for her by special bees, the orchid bees. I found it is really kind of relatable because you can feel the family dynamics, the pressure she’s under. It’s very well written and I do believe the target group will enjoy it. I started reading this to my grandson, he’s 10. He was very interested in how the bees connected Amese to the animals. I hope we’ll get more from this series. I’m looking forward to sharing this with my grandson. It’s a good story.

Amese is the future Potentate for animalis. She is supposed to take over for her mom but has no desire to be Potentate. The story follows Amese as she navigates different scenarios as different animals learning lessons that would help her as Potentate. This is a great short read for young readers. I would definitely recommend this for parents looking for a good series their preteen and younger teens would enjoy.

Amese of Animalis is the first book in The Borosa Legacy by MJ Murray. A wonderful start to a magical fantasy adventure intended for a younger audience, however I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed this book regardless of my age. Truly an enthralling and enchanting book, with beautiful imagery, world building, and fascinating characters. I felt a personal connection to Amese immediately, and couldn’t get enough of her narrative. I haven’t read from this author before, but I can guarantee I’m waiting for book two!

Amese Of Animals is about a girl who’s trying to figure out her destiny. She feels like the path her parents are trying to put her on isn’t the right path for her. Amese goes through her training and has to learn lessons from each animal she shifts into, thus learning things about herself as well. There’s a good twist and cliffhanger at the end of the book as well, which gets you wanting to read more. Looking forward to the second book in the series.

This is a great children’s fantasy story about a young girl who has to find her way in a world of magic and adventure. It is an exciting story that really draws the reader in. It is well written and imaginatively told, in a way that makes it really easy to picture what is being described to you. I really enjoyed getting to know the character and watching her navigate the situations she finds herself in. This is the first book that I have read by this author and it is one I can definitely say I enjoyed. Even though I am not the intended target audience for the book, the author has managed to write it in a way that I could still connect with the story. This really is a great book and I am intrigued by what else they have to offer.

This book is about Amese trying to figure out if she’s cut out for her predestined future. There is humor, lessons learned, action, and mystery to get you intrigued to continue reading. The setting is very well done and descriptive so that the reader can actually see what’s happening. I like how the author incorporates different settings for each animal and has Amese learn a very important lesson in order to come back to the village.

Amese of Animalis is the first book in the new Borosa Legacy series by M.J. Murray. It is a fun children’s fantasy story (aimed at children aged 10 – 14 years) — full of magic, elemental guardians who balance life in the universe, action, adventure, fate/destiny, mystery, drama, tension, danger, vivid world-building, agendas, lessons, and high stakes. Amese is 13 years old and embarks on a bit of an epic adventure as she steps up to become a guardian. The weight of the responsibility weighs on her as she needs to refine and master her skills/powers if she is to perform her duties effectively. But maybe not everyone wants to see her succeed, so in order to get through it all she must depend on a most unlikely ally. Add in plenty of imaginative and creative touches, original storyline, and great characters/s- and the story takes a captivating turn. What a great start to the series, making it my favourite of Ms. Murray’s books (so far) — and I can’t wait to see where we go from here. Bring on Book #2! Happy Reading…
