Juvenile Pagan-Themed Books/Novels

I don't have a kid in this age class (9 years old and up), but here are a couple of books that I've found that sound like they have a Pagan/Nature/Magic theme....

Title/Description Author Price
Juniper Monica Furlong $3.99
In a prequel to Wise Child, the childhood and education of Juniper — a wise woman — is described. As a young Cornish princess, Juniper draws on the healing arts and white magic she learned from her godmother to protect her kingdom and her family from the machinations of her power-hungry aunt.
