It all starts when a goblin enters a home to change the baby for a changeling… and that is where it all goes wrong, because instead of easily being able to see who is who… the changeling is so real that he cannot figure out which to bring with him, he then gets disturbed and so instead of one kid… mom now has two kids. It was such a playful and adventurous read. But in the end I did read it and I really really liked it. Thank High School and forced reading of books for that one. when books are a MUST read or a HAVE to read… I tend to get a bit stuck. Of course I did a big bookshimmy and a big scream of joy. I have been looking forward to reading these books for some time so imagine my delight when I got a mail from the publisher! They wanted me to be part of the tour, and if I wanted to read the books that would also be great. Look forward to the Blog Tour for Book 2 hitting my blog on June 25th! If you like Changeling, you may also like.I received this book from the publisher in exchange of an honest review. I am definitely looking forward to learning more about the Wild Wood and its magical creatures in the Oddmire sequel! The pacing is superb, and the characters are so relatable, interesting, and multi-dimensional. The boys venture to the wood together, and they find mysterious and dark characters that both help and hinder them along the way.Ĭhangeling is just dark and scary enough to keep you on your toes, without being too intense for your middle-graders to be able to sleep at night. Then one day, they receive a note saying that the changeling must return to the Wild Wood or it, along with its magic, will die.

They grow up together knowing that one is a human and one is not, but both boys are so mischievous that neither they, nor their mother, are ever able to determine who is the real child as they grow up brothers. However, in this case, the goblin performing the switch almost got caught, and both babies were left in the crib! The magic inherent in changelings means that the children look like twins.

Traditionally, when a changeling is born in the goblin world, they are switched with a human child, in order to sell the human to the fairies. This adventurous book begins with a fairy tale bungle.
