Great book with wonderful messages

We listened to this book with my 4 kids (9, 9, 6, 3). My 9 year old son enjoyed it most, though all 3 big kids were invested in the story. It is a lovely book with good vs evil, wonderful character development, and a wonderful plot. Solid book that extols the values of kindness, courage, and hard work without being too preachy. Definitely a favorite around here!

The Green Ember is one of my favorites!

I love this series so much! (Note: this is the first book in a series of 4, and it ends quite suspensfully, so I recommend ordering the other books, Ember Falls, Ember Rising, and Ember's End with this one) This book is full of exciting twists and turns. I have read the whole series twice, and I loved it every time. I would probably recommend this series for 4th-5th grade and up, depending on reading skill. (it might be a little long/hard to read for a 4th grader) If you are reading this as a family, it is probably fine for younger ages too. Those are just minimum ages though, I am in high school and this series is one of my favorites. The plot is so well-written. The main characters are two rabbits, Heather and Picket Longtreader. They find out secrets about their family's past, fight wolves and falcons, and face off against Morbin Blackhawk and his evil army. The series has the perfect ending. I love the occasional illustrations. This book deserves six stars! (Note: If you like The Green Ember, there are six extra books that follow side characters: The Wreck and Rise of Whitson Mariner, The Black Star of Kingston, Prince Lander and the Dragon War, The Last Archer, The First Fowler, and the Archer's Cup)
