Wabi: A Hero's Tale
By Joseph Bruchac
Dial Books, 2006. 198 pgs. Young Adult
Wabi was born as a great horned owl and from the very beginning he is different. He does not realize it at first, but soon discovers that he can understand other animals. Before he knows it, he has adopted a wolf pup that becomes his most loyal friend and he falls in love with a girl from the local human village.
This book is full of adventure, humor, romance, magic, monsters, Native American culture and a lot of other really wonderful things. You can't help loving Wabi and wanting to find out what will become of him in all of his adventures. I would feel confident recommending this book to just about anyone, from the young reluctant reader to the more mature reader looking for a quick enjoyable read.
