Wildwood

Wildwood is a book written by Colin Meloy and illustrated by Carson Ellis. The book is about a young girl named Prue McKeel living in Portland, Oregon who discovers another world (within a forest called the Impassable Wilderness) across the bridge from where she lives. Wildwood tells her adventures through gorgeous illustrations and an imaginative, enchanting story. The book, though being fantastical fiction and about children, is appropriate for all ages and as enjoyable for anyone. The combination of vivid prose with vivid drawings is perfect.—Charis Poon
