Owl Moon
- My favorite is Owl Moon. The quiet feel of the illustrations and the story of a hushed walk in the night woods to listen for owls is enchanting! I didn't realize Jane Yolen had written so many books though so I will have to check out her many others and see if there is another favorite in the bunch!

Child of Faerie
- My favorite book was Child of Faerie (Child of Earth)...I even contacted Jane Yolen once about making a short film of the book. I still want to do this. It was musical and magical and captured the attention of each of my 4 children at times in their lives...It's always been one of my top tens!
