I read this book years ago when I was still the targeted audience, and I LOVED it!! I read all the books except book three and four as I had graduated the 5th grade, but I always find myself remembering the characters, plot, pranks, and the towns obsession with cows. I don't know if the new targeted audience today will like this book (and the other books in the series) as much as I did, but too each their own I suppose. I HIGHLY recommend reading this comedy!!

Winter Turning (Wings of Fire, Book 7)

By Tui T. Sutherland

cozyfox

This story tells about the character winter, who goes to find his sister Icicle who ran away from Jade Mountain Academy after doing some crimes. He goes to the Ice Kingdom to try to have a second chance at being a royal. He then has to fight his brother, Hailstorm. He tells his brother to let him go and to pretend he was dead. That's the most of a summary I can give without spoiling to much. There is much more that happens before and after this that makes the book much more interesting but I'll leave that for you to find out about. Of course read the books before this or atleast rising moon to get a summary and idea of whats happening.
