This was a comfort book throughout my pre-teen years. I would say that is the best age to read it. It ties the country landscape with magical elements and a happy ending that makes growing up seem a little less scary. The narrative also encourages a strong connection to that landscape and the protection of animal life. I would recommend it to any young person who is a little anxious about their future and would like to hold on to their imagination.
