The kittens quickly becomes the favorites of the scraggly bunch of lost cats, but their fate is threatened by a construction project that will destroy the small woods that is their home. With some quick thinking and a little bit of magic, can the cats save themselves and the kittens?

Kenny & the Dragon by Tony DiTerlizzi

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
A young rabbit, who is known for being a bit different, befriends a scholarly dragon, and must defend him against the overexcited townsfolk. A good tale with great characters.

Incident at Hawk's Hill by Allan W. Eckert

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
An interesting story, that lacks some interest for kids, as it focuses a bit too much on the adults in the story, and their reaction to events. When six-year-old Ben is on his own the story gets much more gripping.

The Tales of Beedle the Bard by J.K. Rowling

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
J.K. Rowling gives us another glimpse at the world of Harry Potter in this short book of wizard fairy tales. The book is mentioned in the last few volumes of the Harry Potter series, and Rowling makes it more interesting to Potter fans by adding Albus Dumbledore's personal notes on each story. We can feel like insiders by reading his thoughts on each story and what the tales tell us about wizards through history. This is a fun and short read to satisfy all those fans who miss Harry's adventures.
