Juniper Sawfeather seems to have a talent for finding mythological creatures. Or maybe the creatures are finding her. The mermaids she saved from the oil spill are long gone. There's no evidence of them, and she's been branded as a liar and a fake in the media and at school. Her environmental activist parents have moved on to a protest to save Old Growth trees from being chopped down. June isn't particularly concerned with this cause, but that changes when she falls asleep at the base of a giant tree and wakes to find herself 40 feet in the air on one of its branches From this point on she becomes obsessed with the tree, and it appears the tree is becoming obsessed with her, too. Soon, she is trapped 170 feet above the ground, and the magical spirit that resides in the tree isn't interested in letting her go free or allowing anyone else to save her. Is the tree spirit good or evil? Will Juniper's feet ever touch the ground again?… (meer)

I have said before that I would read anything D.G. Driver writes and so far I have. This is the second installment of the Juniper Sawfeather story. With what happened in this book, the story will make a nice trilogy. Juniper is a great character who doesn't follow along with everyone else in high school. For some reason she can see magical characters. First the mermaids in Cry of the Sea and now an ancient spirit in a tree. No one believes her but her immediate family and a couple other people. Everyone else calls her a liar and fraud. A few of the high school kids are determined to ruin her life.

Driver does a great job of bringing across such a wonderful visual of the story that the reader becomes part of the story. I felt I was up in the tree with Juniper and also on the ground with her family. I cringed when the tree was hurt. I got cold when Juniper was cold. I wanted to know if she was ever going to be let down or if the tree would take her forever.

This is a fantastic young adult series that everyone will enjoy. I can't wait to see if Juniper succeeds on her next quest. Oh, and I can't stand Mrs. Slater the vice principal. I have wanted to reach in and drop kick her. I hope she gets what she deserves in the third book. That woman should not be in education.

Thank you to the author for sending this book to me. I will be telling everyone to read this series. ( )
