I wish that this book could be turned into a whole series; the way the book ends is a real cliffhanger. It is probably one of the best books that I have ever read in my life! I would recommend it to ages 8+. As much as I like it, it does get sad at times. It s great for Enid Blyton lovers and many more. It is very dramatic and involves lots of drama. So creative. I ve never read a book like it. All I can say is WOW what a FAB book! I hope you enjoy reading it just as much as I did. Have fun reading!!!

2 Harriet Harper-Williams, age 11 Jump into this world of magic and feel yourself transforming into a new person. One of the best books I ve ever read! Why would your Mum call you Owl? A bit strange, isn t it? Magical things are happening to the 13-year-old girl called Owl which she can t explain. Her life as an ordinary school girl is transformed when she discovers she has magical powers. Who is her Dad? Where is he? Will she ever find out anything about him? I couldn t put this book down, yet, I never wanted it to finish! I think ages 10 and above would love this book as much as I did because everything about it is amazing. I would definitely rate it 5 stars as it s one of the best books I have ever read in my life and I felt very sad when it ended.

This book is about a girl called Owl who lives with her Mum and finds she has magical ice powers when her hands suddenly turn blue in class and she finds that. Owl and her new friend Alberic, try to track her real father down. My favourite part was when Owl was dancing at the lake because I really liked the descriptions. Annie Sherratt, age 12 This is the most magical book ever! If you have a great imagination it is PERFECT for you! This book is the most magical book I've ever read. It is perfect for you if you have a great imagination and if you're into fairy things, like me. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone and I would read other books from this author! Freya Hudson, age 13 A Girl Called Owl is a magical and enchanting story about the

3 mystical world of winter. When Owl tries to find out who her father is, it leads her on a journey of discovery, betrayal, trust, friendship and power, between two very different worlds. She realises that she is only half-human as she develops special powers and has to learn how to control them. Characters include Jack Frost, The Green Man, Mother Earth, the Queen of May and talking wolves and owls. The breath taking world of winter is beautifully described. Owl is determined to do things her way to fulfil her destiny, although many times she regrets being on her 'adventure' and just wants to forget about it all and be boring and normal. She has to accept her fate and becomes more like her name; a bird of wisdom and prey. This book is a good, easy read, a kind of fairy tale, a page turner into the deeper world of the elements, friends, family and frost. I enjoyed this book, it was a good easy read about adventure, power, trust, friendship and discovery between our human world and a fairy world. Ella, age 11 I loved this book! A tale of a girl called Owl, who all her life has been normal, well as normal as you can be called Owl. But actually Owl's NOT normal, she has a frosty side. Good for 8-12 years. I loved this book! A tale of a girl called Owl, who all her life has been normal. Listening to her Mum's fairy- tale stories about the land of the fay and Jack Frost, her Dad. But Owl's 13 now and doesn't want to listen to fairy tales anymore, so she goes searching for answers, answers to a very important question. Who's Owl's Dad? Well, maybe they weren't fairy tales...? Good for 8-12 year olds. Rose Spear, age 11 A Girl Called Owl is a book about the journey of a twelve year old girl, whose family secret leads her on ground breaking adventures. A Girl Called Owl is an exciting and adventurous book, which will make you not want to put it down. The story starts by Owl discovering the identity of her father, which comes as a shock because he is from a different world. I loved this book. It was full of mystery with every turn of the page. My favourite character has to be Owl because she showed so much courage to find her father. I really enjoyed reading the book, it was great and I would recommend it to any fantasy loving children.

She feels a mysterious power which may have a link to her missing Dad. She sets out to find him and the adventure begins! If you like a satisfying challenge then this book is for you.

Eventually when her mother tells her who her father is, Owl wants to find him, but strange things happen to her on the quest. The main question is will she find her father. This fantastic book is filled with adventure. I love the way that they describe the creatures. My favourite character is Mallory, because she's a bit of a drama queen like me. My favourite part is when the Owls start talking to Owl on the bed, because its mysterious. I recommend this book to people 10 and upward. This book is now a favourite of mine because it's wintery and I love winter. I love this book because it's filled with love, hate, adventure and a mind-boggling mystery.

5 Sienna Broomfield, age 9 This book is about a very famous character called Jack Frost; however, my favourite character is Owl. If you like mystery stories you will love this book. This book has some very creative writing and characters which makes it an exciting read. I think that the book would appeal to everyone because it is about a very famous character called Jack Frost.

Anya Fuller, age 9 Full of magic, frost, power and friendship. A great read! A Girl Called Owl is a brilliant book full of magic, frost, power and friendship. This book is about a girl whose mother named her Owl. She has a mysterious father whom she never met and knows nothing about. One day at school frost patterns appear on her skin and a new boy starts giving her weird looks. Does her father have something to do with this? My favourite character is Owl because she is courageous and curious. She never gives up trying to find out who her father is and why he ran away. My other favourite character was Mallory (Owl s friend) because she wanted to help Owl. My favourite part was when Owl froze Mallory s room and when she unfroze it the room was all wet. This book is very atmospheric because it is written in first person and present tense. There are no pictures so the descriptions have to stand in their place and they do that job very well! I would recommend this book for ages 9+ who like stories about magic, power and friendship. It would make the perfect present for any time of the year. Richie Upchurch, age 9 A Girl Called Owl is a really good, magical adventure that makes me imagine winter and want a pet owl. Owl lives with her mum who tells beautiful fairy stories about how she met

6 Owl s father, but Owl wants to know who her father really is. Finally she does tell Owl and gives her a spell to take her to Owl s father, but it doesn t seem to work. Of course it doesn t, magic isn t real, or is it? Owl gets frost on her skin and to everyone else she is really cold. She wants to find out why. She finds out that the new kid at school, Alberic, has something to do with her dad s world [ ] so then she tries to find him. My favourite characters are everyone. Alberic is interesting, her mum is really nice, her best friend Mallory is a really loyal mate, and Jack is boomy and wild, and he plays games with Boreas, the North Wind, and builds beautiful bridges. A Girl Called Owl is a very good book and is a magical story. The whole entire thing makes me imagine winter. Blog: Alex, age 10 Owl meets a boy called Alberic and all changes in her life. Alberic is the son of the Earl of October who is part of the Fay Council and with the help of her friend Mallory and Alberic she discovers the truth about her father. This book was easy to read but it didn't grab my attention or imagination. I didn't really understand the plot, though I liked the magical fantasy theme. Ellen Cox, age 10 A brilliant mystery story. I loved A Girl Called Owl. It was good at leaving you on a cliff-hanger and I think it's aimed at 9+
