The book Wind by Ellen Dee Davidson is dedicated to Stevie Alanna, has a copyright page, and consists of 24 chapters with exciting titles.
 
Katie was staring out the window in her classroom. She was distracted and unable to concentrate in class due to all that was happening at home. Suddenly, she heard a voice who said, "Will you listen to me?" She thought it was Mr. Pinski, her science teacher, but alas, he wasn't because he was focused on his teaching. She heard the voice again. She was confused and wondered who would want her to listen. Alas, a tree was talking to her. The tree needed her help. An earthquake happened suddenly, and she was trapped in a basement, where she met Za, an alien-like gnome. Will Katie ever see her parents? Will Za rescue Katie from the basement? Will Za harm Katie? Read this amazing book to find out about loads of adventure.
 
I love how the praise for Wind is the start-off page for any reader. The book Wind by Ellen Dee Davidson contains amazing environmental values, talking about biodiversity, earthworms, and nature itself in general, and unforgettable characters like the talking tree, Za, and courageous Katie. The suspense in this book is fascinating, which made it more exciting to read because I was always looking forward to what would happen next. It has a satisfactory ending and talks about true friendship, loyalty, and trust. I love the magical sensation the book gives, which makes me imagine having fairies around.
 
I dislike nothing about this book, despite it not having any colorful graphical illustration, which might not be so catchy to children but will be great for storytelling and moonlight tales to children due to the adventures in it, from the fairies to dragons to aliens like gnomes to mermaids and more. I was able to connect well with the story and its flow. It has a gratifying ending despite the constant fights between Katie's parents; she loved them still and didn't forget them all through her adventures. This book is exceptionally edited, and I found no errors while reading it. I rate it five out of five stars.
 
I recommend this book to children, especially the older ones who love magic and adventure stories.

The reviewer did an excellent job of capturing the essence of the story and the main character's struggle. Their description of Katie's distraction and the mysterious voice she hears immediately drew me into the narrative. It's clear that the reviewer has a genuine interest in the book and its plot.

Katie's parents seem like character who I'll relate well with. My parents are always having these constant fights too so... 😂😂 Thanks for your review by the way.

I like the suspense in your review. A tree talking and seeking a human's help is so intruiging. I'd lobe to read too. Nice review

The personification executed in this book is remarkable. I love books that contain valuable lessons on powerful topics; in this case, it's the magic of the environment. Your review was honest and insightful. Excellent review.

This book sounds quite interesting. I wonder how Katie would help this tree prevent an earthquake. Interesting review.

I would have loved if it had colourful pages, so that it can resonate with kids too. Thanks for your review BTW.
