Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
This first children's book by Kate Thompson was an immediate success in bookshops, and made it's way onto many top reviewers' lists, not to mention the short list for the Smarties Book Award in 1998.

A dark, mystical tale, it is the story of Tess, a girl who discovers she has the power to change shape to become any other creature. She thinks she is alone with this charmed power until she meets Kevin, another "switcher". Together they realize that their combined powers are awesome enough to save the Earth from the freezing winds of the heat- hating, ice-spewing krools. This is a charming novel, best suited to strong readers, but written with an ease and pace that children will find compelling. The film rights to this book were immediately snapped-up and the sequel, Midnight's Choice, is also available, taking up where Switchers leaves off. (Ages 10 to 12) EN

Synopsis
Tess is a Switcher, meaning that she can change shape to become any animal she chooses. She always thought she was unique, but not any more. Tess meets Kevin, another Switcher, and together they turn out to have powers they never, ever dreamed of.

4.0 out of 5 stars I want the sequels!, 8 Feb 2001
By A Customer
Switchers is an amazing book. My mum picked it up for me in a sale and I started to read it but put it down after a while. Then there was a book readathon for children in need at my school and finished it off. It was Fantastic! It goes slowly at parts but has something in there for everyone! For the parents- A good family moment every now and again For the little boy who likes the army- Plenty of Action and Adventure. For the little girl who likes animals- Kids that turn into animals? Enough said For the one with a big imagination-(Thats me!) the whole book Switchers you have to keep with and when you do you won't be dissapointed. You won't be able to put it down!
