Marco is a reluctant Animorph, having been given the ability, along with four other friends, to change into animal forms by an Andalite prince, an alien who wants help in stopping an invasion of the enemy Yeerks, but when he discovers that his mom, who he believed was dead, has been taken over by the Yeerks, he finds a reason to fight.

Educating from the mind of an animal

4 stars

Another fun part of the story. I didnt think much of Marco before. But this really makes you care about him. We will see where that big twist goes, still iffy about it. But not bad.

What I like is you can tell the author cares about her characters, and educating about animals. The education is made fun and scary and interesting and disturbing. I like how she tries to teach about an animal by getting into the animal's head. And also how to deal very directly with that head.

Looking forward to another.
