Overview

On Gwyn's 9th birthday, his grandmother tells him he may be a magician, like his Welsh ancestors. She gives him five gifts to help him-a brooch, a piece of dried seaweed, a tin whistle, a scarf, and a broken toy horse. One blustery day, unsure what to do with his newfound magic, Gwyn throws the brooch to the wind and receives a silvery snow spider in return. Will he be able to use this special spider to bring his missing sister, Bethan, home? THE SNOW SPIDER spins an icy, sparkly web of mystical intrigue that sets the stage for the next two books in this outstanding trilogy!

Story takes place in Wales. A bit of fantasy, but nothing outlandish. Nar. is good; does voices, but nothing too hard or too different. Worth taking the time to read.

I got this to listen in the car when bringing my 3 children to and from school. They absolutely love it. The Narrators accent brings you right into the story. Another plus is that this book is an Accelerated Reader (AR) book for the school and they can earn extra reading points by taking a test on it. We can't wait for the 2nd book!

I thought the plot was well developed and kept me interested. The story was very imaginative and different.
