Oh, my goodness! This was a gorgeous book in every way. It totally deserved to win the Newbery Award. I loved that the world, though different from ours, was still accessible and believable... it was just born of magic. Every year, a baby is left in a clearing for the witch. The parents have no idea what happens to that baby, but one year, the witch accidentally enmagics the child by feeding her moonlight. There's too much to tell, but I guarantee you will fall in love with Glerk, Xan, Fyrian and Luna. This book had an extraordinary story to tell with a simply enormous amount of heart. If you love fantasy, you will adore this one, no matter how old you are.
