Alanna: The First Adventure by Tamora Pierce #1 of The Song of the Lioness Published September 1983
Though a girl, Alanna has always craved the adventure and daring only for boys; her twin brother, Thom, yearns to learn the art of magic. So one day they decide to switch places: Disguised as a girl Thom heads to the convent to learn magic; Alanna, pretending to be a boy, in on her way to the castle of King Roald to begin her training as a page. ~ This is our primary book for July. As a huge fan of fantasy, I am really excited to read a 'classic' young adult fantasy. Happy reading!
