WONDER LIGHT

Book ID/图书代码: 12311014B72639

English Summary/英文概要: Deep in the heart of a mist-shrouded island, an impossible secret is about to be discovered.

Twig is used to feeling unwanted. Sent to live on a pony ranch for "troubled" girls on a misty, haunted island, Twig is about to discover the impossible — someone who needs her.

Jolted awake from a bad dream, Twig follows the desperate whinny of a terrified horse out to the stables. There in the straw is a bleating little scrap of moonbeam. A silver-white filly with cloven hooves and a tiny, spiraling horn.

A baby unicorn.

Now Twig knows what secret is hiding in the island’s mist: the last free unicorn herd. And a mysterious boy named Ben who insists that this impossible creature is now Twig’s to care for. That she needs Twig’s love and protection. Because there’s something out there in the deep, dense shadows that’s hunting for them...

"R. R. Russell’s Wonder Light dares to explore a world where unicorns are creatures of wonder and power, and girls can find both strength and courage to be themselves." -Robin Hobb, International bestselling author

"In this atmospheric debut, the unassuming and subtle fantasy elements take a backseat to Twig’s growing faith in herself and trust in others.The combination of horses, unicorns, and an offbeat girl is a winning one." - Booklist

"There are some really amazing middle grade books being published, and this is definitely one of them. I loved all the characters, but Twig captured my heart and I rooted for her throughout the entire book.You’ve never read about unicorns like this! " - Books for Kids

"Young adult readers and their parents will appreciate Russell’s message that sometimes it just takes one person (or animal) to believe in you to make all the difference." - Portland Book Review

"I totally enjoyed this story... I’m from Seattle and really loved the island setting. Add in all the great characters - Twig is wonderful! - and you have something very special that I can sell." - Loretta Houck, Laughing Dog Books, Boonville, CA

"This is a wonderful coming of age book for the middle school crowd. I loved the name Twig and that she finds that she is brave, talented, and strong. I really cant wait for the next one! This book will appeal to the girls from ages 8 to 13." - Witchever

"I was sucked into this book from the get-go. I have never wanted a character to succeed more than I do Twig. She is a well-written character that has many layers. Some still to be uncovered. I loved how her character opened up and changed throughout this book. Not only with Twig, but with the other characters, as well. This is a book I highly recommend!" - To Read or Not to Read

" This is definitely a fantasy novel for older children who want more than the traditional unicorns they grew up with, but still covet the whimsy of fantasy they bring to a story. Readers will want to be in Twig’s shoes, experiencing much of her adventure first-hand." - A Backwards Story

"Wonder Light is an imaginative adventure for kids ages 9 and up." - Sweeps 4 Bloggers

" I absolutely love the main character, Twig, her courage and will power to help save the unicorns along with the other girls and trying to keep the entire island safe just amazes me. She’s exactly what a lead female character needs to be, loyal, brave and kind-heartedThis was a quick read and it was really good. It’s recommended for kids nine and up, but my seven year old is reading this right now and she’s loving every bit of it" - Just Us Girls
