INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Arntson, Steven

The Wikkeling

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Daniela J. Terrazzini. Arntson's novel defies classification--it is a bestiary and a dystopia, a horror novel and a time-slip tale. At its heart, however, it is the story of three unlikely but compelling friends--Henrietta, Gary, and Rose--who circumvent the strictures of their society with the help of old books, a few eccentric adults, and a good dose of gumption. Terrazzini's silhouette art adds layers of interest.
