Brodien-Jones, Christine The Owl Keeper, 320. Delacorte Books for Young Readers, 2010. Content - G; Max is allergic to the sun. Forced to spend his days inside, he sneaks out at night to visit the owl tree where his silver owl is hidden. Max loves silver owls and believes them to be magic, but the government claims they are evil and kill any they find. When Max discovers that his caregiver and the government have a horrible use for him he runs away with his friend Rose to try and find The Owl Keeper, someone who was prophesied of long ago to bring freedom and peace to their world.
I found this book slow to start and wordy throughout. 100 pages shorter and I would've liked it much more. It had a lot of plot holes and the adults aren't all that smart. EL - OPTIONAL. Rebekah, Public Librarian
