A glittering story of frost and friendship, full of magic and heart, A Girl Called Owl is Amy Wilson’s folklore-fantasy about the beauty of nature.

It’s bad enough having a mum dippy enough to name you Owl, but when you’ve got a dad you’ve never met, a best friend who needs you more than ever, and a new boy at school giving you weird looks, there’s not a lot of room for much else.

So when Owl starts seeing strange frost patterns on her skin, she’s tempted to just burrow down under the duvet and forget all about it. Could her strange new powers be linked to her mysterious father? And what will happen when she enters the magical world of winter for the first time?

Continue Owl’s story with the companion book, Owl and the Lost Boy.

I really liked this book because it’s so exiting! Owl find her long lost dad who turns out to be Jack Frost, the legendary winter spirit responsible for all of winter. He is part of a mysterious fae court hidden in a thicket, guarded by a magic spell to keep out humanity. Alberic is the earl of October’s son and he recognises owl for what she is before she does. He is the one who introduced owl to the magical world. Can owl learn to control her power or will she become a wraith? I would recommend this book to anyone who has a liking for magical people.

I liked this book because it was a mixture of the real world and the fae world. My favourite character is probably Isolde because she deals with the stress of two words for longer than anyone else. I would recommend this book to people who like gripping storylines.

I really enjoyed it as it had an air of mystery surrounding it and it was full of magic and fantasy. My favourite character was the talking owl as in my imagination it was a beautiful creature and also had a wild side not just the side that we see. Yes I would definitely recommend it to someone who likes adventure and engaging books. It is not a hard read so younger people could read it.
