Skellig is by David Almond. Michael has a brand new baby sister that is very ill. His parents have moved to a real fixer-upper of a house and inside the dilapidated garage he finds a strange winged man. He meets Mina, the feisty home schooler next door and together they set out to help Skellig. This a wonderful story of love and concern, with a touch of magical realism. A very good fantasy story with a touching ending.
Ratings: 6th grade, 8 out of 10.
