Vande Velde, Vivian. Stolen

Vande Velde, Vivian. Stolen. Marshall Cavenish, 2008
On the day the witch's house was burnt down, twelve-year-old Isabelle is found running through the woods with no memory. She does not know anything but her name. I was believed many years ago that Isabelle was stolen by a witch. Now her mother is overjoyed to have her back but her sister does not believe this girl is their Isabelle. This is a intriguing 158 page book. Once again Vande Velda has crafted a wonderful tale with a surprising ending.
