A town lives in sorrow and fear. Each year they must sacrifice a child to keep the witch in the woods happy. A baby is left but when a good witch rescues her, as she has done to all the previous babies, she mistakenly feeds her moonlight and enmagics the baby, now called Luna. This is a beautiful fantasy adventure story of hope and love and magic, written by Kelly Barnhill. (FIC BAR). The language is beautiful, but the vocabulary is definitely for higher-level readers. It is the winner of this year's Newbery Medal.
