Summary: The Moorchild
Review: The Moorchild is a great book to read. If you like Harry Potter you will like this book. This book makes you feel a lot of emotions. Some of the emotions I felt were sunspense, excitement, sadness and a lot more. A lot of people belive in changelings and if you were to do a report on pixies or changelings this is a book you should read. This book is one of my favorites. I recomend you reading this book.

Summary: The Moorchild
Review: The Moorchild is about a little girl who is forced to live with people she doesn't know. Saaski is also blamed for things like putting a sickness on all the children in the village. I liked how Saaski and Tam, a boy Saaski befriends, saves Anwara`s real baby. I disliked how the folks called her names. I think just because they're different doesn't mean they have a different heart. I learned that people, should be fair even if they're different. People all have the same heart . Saaski had the same heart and I think its cool.

Summary: Scottish Heritige? Read this!
Review: The Moorchild is one of the most compelling books I have ever read. I have a very strong Scots-Irish heritige, which was what first attracted me to the book. I also greatly appreciate the fact that in this book, the Folk, Little People, or, yes, leprichans, are not depicted as lttle green men, but as what they really are and what they were meant to be. Small, elfin people with magical abilities and none to nice tempremants. This book is a must read for anyone with Scottish ot Irish blood.

Summary: Being Different
Review: The Moorchild," by Eloise McGraw is a very sad and touching fantasy. The book tells the story of Saaski who lives in a human family but actually is half human and half Folk. Saaski was always being treated badly because she was different from everybody else in the village. All Saaski wanted was to feel at home somewhere, but she could not feel at home anywhere because she was a "changeling." Even though this book is a fantasy, it still makes your mind care about what happens to Saaski. The village people blame her for everything that goes wrong just because she looks different and acts different from them. But the author lets us know that Saaski is loving, kind and generous and makes a point that it is not the outside that matters, but what is in the inside that makes you a good person.
Younger readers are going to need help with this book because of the characters' accents and how the story switches from the moor to the village. But this book is worthwhile to read because it touches you in many ways.

Summary: A great fairy-tale fantasy...
Review: The story starts with a young girl named Moql'nkkn, who lives among the "Folk", a fairy like people. What Moql doesn't know is that she's only half-Folk. She finds it this out at the worse possible time- when she is supposed to disappear in front of a human. When she can't, she is brought to the "Prince" of the Folk, who decides she is to be exchanged for a human baby, which the Folk will use as a slave. Moql wakes up in a nearby village, and is called Saaski, her parents believing she is their human child, and the new little Saaski forgetting almost all of her old life. Saaski is hated by the villagers, who things she is a evil being. Her only true friend is Tam, a young boy who watches goats. The writing makes this book seem to come alive. The storyline will grip you and make you wonder what will happen next. Why Saaski find out who she truly is? Will the villagers harm her? And who are the small people she sometimes sees on her beloved moor?

Summary: Not recomended for children
Review: This book is about a child who is different in her village. From looking at the cover and reading a little about the story, I thought this would be a heart-warming tale. I was wrong. It says that it is for anyone who has ever felt different. The impression that I got from this book was that if you are different it is bad. The little girl was picked on, verbally abused and threatened to be killed. This book should not be read by children of any age, especially if they feel different.

Summary: Impossible to stay interested...
Review: This book is about a nasty little changling girl and her adventures in a village. It's impossible to stay interested in the dull dragging plot and boring characters. I lost interest before I even read twenty pages. It was also utterly incomprehensible most of it I had no idea what was going on. Boring and impossible to understand, I hated this horrid book.

Summary: THIS IS THE BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD. YOU HAVE TO READ IT.
Review: This book is about being different than others.It is about a girl who is named Moql'nkkn who doesnt fit in with the rest of her people, the Moorfolk, who live in caverns under the moor. She can't disappear and the Moor folk exchange her for a human child. All the other chidren make fun of her, but she finds one friend, named Tam.I think that it is the best book in the world because easy to follow and holds your interest. I read it in one day or so because it was so interesting. You have to get it!!!!!
