A girl ventures to reverse a curse that turned her seven brothers into ravens in this fairy tale retelling in verse by a New York Times -bestselling author.
"Rich with evocative language... . . . Sparklingly accessible for teen readers. . . . Cai's . . .inky illustrations weaving multiple narrators into a beautifully unified volume. Fans of lyrical retellings such as Malinda Lo's Ash will find this bittersweet quest a warm welcome into myth and verse." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
When Robyn and his brothers are turned into ravens through the work of a curse, their younger sister is their only hope for them to become human once again. Though she's never met them, April is determined to restore her brothers' humanity. But what will become of Robyn, who has discovered a much greater affinity to the air than the earthbound lives of his family?
The Seventh Raven is filled with powerful messages that can only be teased from the timeless themes of fairy tales-this beautiful retelling shows us the cost of unintended consequences as well as the gift of transformation.
"Elliott brings emotional depth and poignant verse to the Grimms' "The Seven Ravens." This beautifully evocative tale weaves different poetry forms to great effect. . . . Although the setting and events may belong in a fairy-tale, the core emotions of this work draw straight from reality." - School Library Journal (starred review)
"Elliott once again is a master at poetic form... . . . Within the elegant construction is a simple story of best intentions that reap terrible consequences and a look at how we believe our wishes for others come from a place of altruism when it is more often selfishness." - The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
