The Familiars by Adam Jay Epstein and Andrew Jacobson
360 pages
This is a very fun fantasy for young readers...around 4th grade would be a good match. Does truly strong good magic come only from witches and wizards, or does the magic come from the familiars that serve them. This is a good wholesome book...nothing dark to worry about. My only problem with this book was a minor one: the main characters include a cat, a bird, and a tree frog. They are constantly being held back because the frog has a hard time walking with suction cup feet. Why in the world wouldn't he hop on the kitty's back for the ride? Other than that, superb!
There will be a movie made, and, of course, a sequel.
