On the first page of Wildwood Prue McKeel’s baby brother is carried off by crows while she is supposed to be minding him. Worse than that, the crows take baby Mac into the Impassible Wilderness that grows in a scary forbidden tangle outside St Johns, near Portland Oregon. Prue McKeel knows her parents will be heartbroken if they lose Mac. Prue knows what she has to do- sneak into the Wilderness and steal Mac back from the crows. Written and illustrated by a husband and wife team who live in Oregon. One of my favorite YA books read so far this year.
