Review: The Moorchild by Eloise McGraw
10-15
The child of a fairy folk mother and human father, Moql doesn't fit into either of their worlds. First raised by the fairies, she's exchanged for a human baby and then starts life almost all over again, with a new name, Saaski, and only the faintest knowledge of her origins. "A complex and finely drawn character, Saaski undergoes a gradual awakening to her own true nature that readers will find intriguing and poignant". -- Kirkus Reviews.
Saaski is not a normal girl. She has a weird complexion, eyes that change depending on her mood, and has strange athletic abilities. Because of this, she is always tormented and made fun of by the other children. Her frightening and tough father is the only reason that the rest of the village hasn't abandoned her. Yet.
Saaski just wants to fit in. She's not like the other mischievous pixies. But all the other villagers don't care, except for her ;"parents.'
You'll see why this book is best-selling.
Best. Book. Ever.
