A Great Kid's Adventure, December 20, 2006
This review is from: Through the Tiger's Eye (Telares Trilogy) (Paperback)
As a bookstore owner, I read a lot of books for kids and young adults to make sure that they're a) appropriate for my store and b) worth reading. (That's my excuse, anyway). I was quite taken with "Through the Tiger's Eye," a fantasy adventure chronicling the adventures of a twelve year old girl and her six year old brother after they discover a tunnel that connects their corner of Australia to a magical island called Telares. A magic rug, prophetic dreams, a telepathic cat, and children held in economic slavery figure prominently in the plot. Alternately amusing and dramatic, the story makes for a quick, exciting read. The characters are engaging and well drawn, and the story's left wide open for later books. I can't wait to read the next one, assuming I can find it.
