Newbery Medal-winning Kate DiCamillo and Caldecott Medal-winning Sophie Blackall -- what more to say!!!

This is a story about a mysterious kid who appears at the monastery with Answelica, a goat, during the time of war. The king wishes this kid to be dead, but she should go in search of the King's castle.

Title: The Beatryce Prophecy

A story of friendships and revenge, love and hope.

To be frank, I was not into this book when I started reading it. But, after 4 or 5 chapters, I was fully into it and immersed until the end. Excellent work!!! 

In my opinion, the audience of this book would be higher elementary-aged kids and middle-school kids. Of course, adults can always read!
