I loved this book when I was like in the 6th grade. :) It was gripping, entertaining, mysterious, and had a very climactic ending. It was one of my favourites then, and I hope another young person will get to enjoy it just as much as I did.

This was a pretty good 'middle grades' book involving elements of science fiction and fantasy. The heroine is a great "shero" - imaginative and fearless. I thought at first her use of made up words was a little annoying, but it grew on me. Ho-diddly! Spindle sickness - so named for the Sleeping Beauty story - is growing across the world and Starbright is the only one who can go up against this menace. There were parts that seemed very intense, so this wouldn't be suitable for younger readers, but middle readers should find this exciting and a quick read.
Sending in a box of books as a RABCK - need to move these on.
Sounds like something me and my daughter could both enjoy. In the box of books from bkind2books. Thank you so much for sharing!
