(4) 4-6 Thickety series. Illustrated by Andrea Offermann. Kara and Taff struggle through the menacing Thickety hoping to both escape the Forest Demon and rescue their father. The ordeals that test them also make them stronger, however, and even the most threatening creatures turn out to have intriguing histories.
