"The Kinmaran Chronicles I.i - The Adventures of Brackenbelly: All in a Day's Work" by Gareth Bakeris a fun read although one not without some unexpected depth.A chostri farmer and his niece are visited by an uma, named Brackenbelly, who helps them solve a bothersome and dangerous mystery.It is a wonderful and intelligent tale about animals and humans alike, told with outstanding characters and a captivating narrative. The suspense is just right for the age group and keeps the momentum of the story going without becoming too daunting.A very enjoyable and worthy adventure and fantasy read for children 8-12.
