Why read it?
2 authors picked Plotting the Stars 1 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
My daughter loved the main character, Myra. She (my daughter) sometimes gets in trouble at school and/or wants to ditch classes, so she could relate to Myra from the start.
She also really liked the magic in this book. She couldn’t believe that kids got Creers and even got marks on their bodies from the Creer. In the end, she wished she could be a Botan, too.
First off, this book was written by a good friend of mine and I got to read early, early drafts of it. But more importantly, Myra, the main character, is in a special school on the Moon for kids with magic. Only, she doesn’t have magic. She has to try to fake her way through it.
That is, until she develops the wrong kind of magic. When she discovers she’s a Boton, all is lost. She could be put in jail for having plant magic–or worse. Myra isn’t very good at making friends, but she learns through this tough situation…
From Maura's list on kids who make it through tough times.
