Our discussion of Skellig has been one of wonderful insights and commentaries from readers with a wide range of responses, and we thank everyone who shared their thoughts. Let's now turn the focus of the discussion to Kit's Wilderness, David Almond's second novel for young readers.

First, I want to remind everyone of the interview that Michael Thorn conducted with David Almond. As Katy Horning mentioned at the start of this month, this interview is on the ACHUKA web site at:

http://www.achuka.co.uk/dasg.htm

and in it Almond discusses Kit's Wilderness.

While Kit's Wilderness is a book published just this year in the United States we hope that many of you have had a chance to read it and invite your responses now. What were your impressions of this novel?
