Wildwood

By Colin Meloy, illustrations by Carson Ellis (Balzer + Bray, $19)
Ages 9-12

Penned by the Decemberists’ singer and songwriter, this tale of wonder, danger and magic follows a young girl who ventures into the “Impassable Wilderness”—known locally as Wildwood—in order to find her baby brother who has been abducted by a murder of crows. Hand-drawn maps and illustrations add whimsy to this wonderful novel.
