From the Deep Forest

From the Deep Forest is a contemporary middle grade novel about a brother and sister, living in the Pacific Northwest, who navigate typical sibling challenges amidst a highly atypical situation: they’ve accidentally discovered a very large, terrifying creature of the woods.

 

Crystal and Freddie McKenzie are middle school siblings who annoy each other much of the time, but they share a love for exploring the wilderness near their home. When their frequent visits to the woods result in an encounter with a creature—a dark, massive, mysterious monster—their lives are changed forever.

 

At first they’re certain they won’t survive this terror. Then they’re not sure if they could ever tell anyone about it. Who would believe that they have gotten so close to such an amazingly powerful beast of legend—and lived to tell about it? As they struggle to gradually let the rest of the world in on their miraculous discovery, however, the situation starts to spiral out of control. Maybe the civilized world isn’t yet ready to handle something this frightening.
