Jenny Nimmo - The Owl Tree

[Crocky]

Has anyone come across this author?
There is an offer for five of her books at Red House, in the 7 to 9 year old section but not sure if they are aimed at a young 7 or an old 9 iykwim.
Ds is reading level 9 of ORT but is bored. I am finding it hard to find books at a level he can manage with a subject that he finds interseting.
He seems to like a bit of magic with some animals thrown in.

Didn't she do The Snow Spider?

I seem to recall reading that at more the 9yr old stage than the 7yr old...

Mine are still only little though so I don't know where level 9 ORT fits in

Thanks Flame.
