The Wee Free Men, by Terry Pratchett

Sorry this is late! I had some computer issues. To make it up to you, there will be a bonus update on Monday.

The Wee Free Men. Terry Pratchett. 5 stars. When 9-year-old Tiffany Aching's annoying little brother is stolen by the Queen of Faerie, she COULD ask a grown-up to save him. But Tiffany wants to be a witch, and witches deal with things. Best Thing: Tiffany Aching. Worst Thing: Allusions. There are a lot of references to familiar fairy tales, myths, and legends—a lot of old stories with a new spin. I love it, but I gather that some may not.

Good for: Anyone who can read, especially those who enjoyed the first few books in the Harry Potter series. People who are already familiar with and enjoy Terry Pratchett and/or Discworld should enjoy it as well, but no prior Discworld knowledge is required.
