THE GIRL WHO SOARED OVER FAIRYLAND AND CUT THE MOON IN TWO<br><b>Catherynne M. Valente</b><br><i>Much-in-Little Books</i>
Young September, eager to leave the bland life of classrooms and chores, embarks on a fantastical adventure, hurtling through strange worlds.
Her aim is to get back to Fairyland, where life is surreal and a whirl; where the boy Saturday lives, as well as almost every other form of creature imaginable.
This young adult novel adds to the Fairyland series and is a sophisticated story in terms of character interaction, prose and imagery.
Readers will lose themselves in a fantasy world where puffins tumble out of the wind and crocodiles have glinting silver eyes and golden glass spectacles.
Ages 10-14.
