Guardians of Ga'Hoole: The Capture by Kathryn Lasky Reviewed by Kiana April 30, 2011 (Finished this book 1 1/2 weeks ago and couldn't do review cause I was busy. Sorry.) __Guardias of Ga'Hoole: The Capture__ by Kathryn Lasky is an amazing, wonderful, interesting and heart pounding book!!!!!!! If you love owls or you are interested in owls, then you should read this book. The genre/theme of this book is adventure, science fiction and fantasy. The topics of the books is cooperation and teamwork, courage and honor, and friends and friendships. This book is about a young barn owl called Soren who lives in the Kingdom of Tyto (has an older brother named Kludd, a younger sister who was born three weeks after he was named Eglantine) and how Soren "fell" out pf the tree and was taken hostage at the St. Agentines Orphange. When he's there, instead of being called by his name, he gets a number from his cell guard who expects the owlets to call her Aunty because she is sweet. Aunty gives him her favorite number, 12-1 and a extra piece of meat. However, Soren meets another owlet called Gylfie who is a smart little Elf Owl that lives in the Desert of Kuneer. While they are there, the owls that are in charge and work for St. Agentines Orphanage are moon blinking owlets. Every night, all the owlets sleep and then when the alarm goes off, the lift there heads to the full moon and walk in a circle around one of the pits with there eyes close. Gylfie and Soren now must figure out how to get back to their families, save themselves from moon blinking, and learn how to //fly// (in the book, it talks about how each family of owls celebrate their owlets, First Bones, First Meat, First Meat and Fur, First Flight and stuff like that). Also, they will feel the grief that weighs them down as they lose three great, wise owls. Read and find out!
