BOOK: Switchers by Thompson

[Frederick Muller <fmuller@TELLURIAN.NET>]

Thompson, Kate._Switchers_,1998
Tess is a switcher (a child who can become various animals) and
one day a boy follows her home from school.  He is a switcher too
and after they get to know each other they realize that they are
being called on a mission.  They must help save the world from
Krools who are bringing back another ice age.  This is a touching
story of a developing friendship between two loners as well as an
action packed adventure story as they switch to various animals
while  traveling north to battle the Krools.  The reader really gets to
know the Tess and Kevin very well.  This 220 page book is a great
"If you liked the Animorphs you'll like.."  It is step up from them in
reading level and in quality.
