Why read it?

1 author picked Elementals as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I enjoyed how this story explores the idea of genetics, visually represented by one twin, Anders, transforming into an ice wolf while his sibling, Rayna, morphs into a scorch dragon.

I find it’s easy to misunderstand things if you don’t explore beyond the surface, so the theme of things being deceptive on the surface, requiring deeper investigation to uncover the truth, was interesting to me. I loved that I was slightly surprised with the ending, something that rarely happens because I often can predict where a story will go, even the twists.

I think this story will capture the hearts…

From Catharina's list on delving into magic worlds for middle grade.
