Lots of things to love in this fabulous YA fantasy. The exploration of the Otherworld that exists between reality and myth. The promise of mystery and magic. But perhaps the thing I like most about this story is Abbie... a little girl who is both scared and defiant, grounded yet wondrous at the magical world she is just about to discover... this story has YA blockbuster written all over it!

Brilliant prose coupled with a young, naive main character makes for a otherworldly read, and one I cannot wait to get my hands on

Fae Child has a magical, ethereal quality to it that reminds me of Alice in Wonderland, a little girl dropped into another space and time, but instead of chasing a rabbit, Abbie is accidentally brought to the Otherworld by a child practicing magic. The delightful innocence of the characters makes this an enchanting read.
