Protecter of the Small: First Test
This book is...

This book is really cool.  For any girl who disagrees with boys being stronger and tougher and all that, Protecter of the Small is about a girl named Keladry who becomes a knight. First Test is the first in the series. There are four books in all.

I love First Test!! I think it's the best book of the series. I think the others are too boring.

Tamora has written at least 22 books. I like them all. She is a very good writer. Has anyone else tried the Circle of Magic books? They are good, too.

So far, I've read First Test, Page, and Squire and want to read all her others soon. Squire I didn't really like, though. I got really mixed up because they always mentioned all these names and places and battles and army groups and I wasn't sure whether I was supposed to know some of them or not.
