The Eye of the North by Sinead O’Hart

I liked the book but initially, I was surprised a the sudden change in life for Emmeline.  That could be intense for the very young reader.  The book is very easy to read so it may garner a younger audience.  It has lots of adventure and excitement with Emmeline showing courage and ingenuity. Thinking more about the story, it is a good adventure and Thing is an interesting sidekick. There is steam punkish hardware and fantasy overtones.  This hopefully will be a series as I can certainly see giving it to my grand kids.

I recommend it.
