Yes to the power of cats!!!! When Emma's sister disappears and her family depletes their savings in the search, Emma and her parents end up living in a ramshackled trailer park inhabited by enchanted creatures and located on the edge of a magical forest. It is up to Emma and her new-found friend, Jack, a talking cat, to save Emma's sister from a future life with the faeries. A captivating tale ideal for reluctant readers. Full of magic, mystery, and a nasty side to faeries. ( )

For younger kids (maybe 8 to 11). The story is fairly simplistic, but it has more adult themes at the end. It certainly didn't go where I expected, and I am sure I would have enjoyed it more as a kid! As it was, a tight and somewhat dark story rife with elves and magic. ( )
