5 out of 5 stars This book was original and captivating!   June 18, 1999
In this incredibly original and fresh book, Kindl creates a totally believable and slightly magical shape shifter for a main character. She expertly weaves a brand new twist in the age old lore of shape changers and puts herself so into Owl and Houle's minds that it is hard to believe that she does not become an owl by night. This book is fabulous- full of unexpected turns and made more delicious with every detail.


5 out of 5 stars True Romance--From that Weird Kid in School   August 17, 1997
You've seen them around. Those weird kids, as a lot of people would call them. The ones who don't act "normal", don't dress "normal", or is "just plain freaky" because they aren't something you are. My friend Bobby would call them freaks of nature, but let's not get into that.

Well, what if that weird kid was more than meets the eye? Sure, Owl, at 14, eats real (albeit dead) rats in her sandwiches, but who would have thought that she lived up to her namesake as a were-owl? And we thought her parents were just down-and-out hippies. Well, they are, sort of. Anyways, her eating rats in public don't go over too well with that elite popular crowd, but she doesn't care because she found her mate: her science teacher. Every night, she stalks-er, watches- her-harumph!-love from a tree. In her owl form, of course, or else she'd look like an idiot perched on that thingy. But all that changes when the new owl in town flies over the cuckoo's nest...

A really good story for the kid who always didn't feel "normal" or "didn't fit in". Try being the kid who REALLY didn't fit in or ISN'T normal.
