Newbery Honor-winning Kathryn Lasky, author of the bestselling
Guardians of Ga'Hoole and Bears of Ice series, delivers a sweeping
middle grade animal adventure with loyal beavers, a cultured swan,
and ominous lynxes around every turn-a captivating story about
heroism, loyalty, and the courage to speak truth to power. "Draws
readers deeply into a mystical world and leaves them wishing for
more." -Kirkus (starred review) "A marvelous adventure...an
enchanting introduction to a wonderful, new natural world."
-Booklist (starred review) "Themes of belonging and friendship are
well conveyed... as are the complexities of this industrious world
of creatures." -Publishers Weekly Deep in the wilds of Scotland,
land of ancient warrior kings and myths, there is a deep secret.
The secret is a colony of beavers, a species that is craved for
their fur pelts, but vilified for what humans consider to be the
destruction of their land. No beaver has been spotted in Scotland
or England for over five hundred years, until the young beaver,
Dunwattle, is sighted! Dunwattle's flight is driven by the presence
of a ghostly figure, a figure of a mysterious young girl who is
almost one thousand years old. And now Dunwattle is destined to be
destroyed for revealing the hidden colony, but his best friend
Locksley is determined to save him. Will their ancient beaver
colony survive?
