Review of WIND
[Following is a volunteer review of "WIND" by Ellen Dee Davidson.]
A teacher once said that extraordinary beings live among us, people that are not regular and ordinary humans. But most times, people don’t recognize them until they reach their potential. It was the case with Katie, a young girl.
Katie just finished discussing this with her best and only friend, Amy. Then her cat tries to tell her something, but she doesn’t listen. Unfortunately, an earthquake occurs, and Katie becomes lost in a world that she does not know about. She meets Za, whom she considers an alien, and they both try to find out the cause of their predicament and the way forward. Luckily, Za finds a way to communicate with his guardian through the help of Dania, a mystical being. His guardian informed him that he was on his journey quest and Katie was his human companion. The guardian gives them a date to complete the mission, or they risk the grave consequences of not returning home. What is this quest about? Will the two of them be able to complete the quest on time? Read this book to find out.
Wind by Ellen Dee Davidson is a fictional children’s novel that talks about the journey of two children into the unknown on a quest to save the universe. The book features the supernatural, adventure, nature, and love. The book contains characters that appreciate and love nature and its environs. The book was very educational. Readers will learn about wildlife, including plants and animals. I also enjoyed and learned from the lecture about dragons and the different types, features, and functions of each dragon. It was a lot.
The author divided this book’s 172 pages into 24 chapters, and each chapter has a title that reflects the contents of that part. The author included literary devices that made the book beautiful, such as alliteration and imagery. The book contains colorful characters with diverse and distinct roles, and I could not help but imagine this story as a movie. It was amazing how the author introduced a new character and described that character’s physical and magical attributes. The book developed perfectly and included every element of a quality novel, such as conflict, climax, and resolution.
The only thing I am uncomfortable with is that the author could have made the book brighter by including pictures and illustrations. However, this is an insufficient reason to remove a star from this book’s rating. Therefore, I rate this book five out of five stars. The book was exceptionally well edited, as I encountered no errors while reading. The book was fascinating, especially the part where the dragon’s tears were emeralds. The book had a well-developed plot and characters.
I recommend this book to older children aged eight and above. Younger children will need assistance from an adult to properly understand the book’s content.

I love finding books for my grandnieces, both of whom are into sci-fi and the supernatural. One, in particular, would love a talking cat! Thank you for your review.
