The Seven Tales of Trinket by Dan Craig, Shelley Moore Thomas
4.0
Trinket's father disappeared years ago, and now that Trinket is alone in the world, she has decided to retrace his steps and learn to be a storytelling bard like he was. Trinket begins to gather stories as she travels, in an effort to learn to storytelling. Everywhere she goes, she asks if anyone has heard of her father, but no one has seen him for years. She meets a seer who can tell the future, and a woman whose baby has been stolen by the selkies. Trinket faces off against an evil banshee and the fairy queen. She rides on a pooka to the land of the dead, and saves a noble hound from a ferocious wolf. Through all her adventures, she searches for some trace of her father, and discovers that she shares his storytelling talent.
I really loved Trinket's character! She is full of doubt and pain, but she continues on her journey trying to help people and gather their stories. She is recklessly brave at times, but it's only because she is so passionately determined to know the truth. She has a really big heart, and I loved how she can see the inner heart of others.
The adventure is really exciting and wild. Many of the stories are based on similar fairy tales from Celtic lore about selkies and the fae and banshees and pookas. But this story has its own twists as Trinket encounters these magical creatures.
There are some creepy scenes when Trinket goes to the land of dead and meets the banshee, but it wasn't too scary. For details about the scary scenes, you can check out the book on the Screen It First website. https://screenitfirst.com/book/the-seven-tales-of-trinket-1367188
