Title:  The Warm Place
Author:  Nancy Farmer
Reviewer:   B.J.F. '11

I think that The Warm Place is a really good book. The main characters are Jabila, a young African slave, Ruva, a baby giraffe, Nelson, a chameleon, Rodentus, a royal rat, and Troll, a young gray rat itching for adventure. Ruva has to escape from a zoo and then get back to Africa, which is where her mother and home are. I like the fact that in the course of the book, the perspective kept changing from the animals to the Slopes', a family of demons that want to control the world. I really want to read more of Nancy Farmer's books, because she is a very descriptive author.
