I wouldnt recommend the book Warriors. Im an eleven years old and you might think Im just stupid, but these words are of a true and loyal Christian, and respect Christ. But I was deceived by this book. When I first approached this book it didnt seem very interesting, but I got it anyway. It looked innocent and cute, but when I was ready for the third book, my dad grabbed one of the books and read the back. It read that the book was about astrology and standing stones. At first I didnt believe him, but then he looked up Erin Hunter and I couldnt believe what I read. Erin Hunter isnt really Erin Hunter, shes actually two women who I dont want say their name. Their interest and love for cats and mythology have made them create an innocent looking and cute book. But they really wanted to deceive children into thinking that Starclan is heaven, but it really represents worshiping the stars and idolizing them. The book says that Starclan is warriors that have passed away from their other clans. Its a very offensive book when you read about it. The book says that only medicine cats are given the power to have messages from Starclan, but Fireheart, also known as Firestar in the fifth book, has somehow been given the power as well, even though he isnt a medicine cat. He also thinks he sees the spirit of the former Thunderclan medicine cat, Spottedleaf, who had been murdered by a Shadowclan warrior named Clawface. This is also known as being medium (seeing ghosts). My main concerns are that children who do know right from wrong should not read this book, nor children who dont. But if your child brings home this book, tell them what its about right away, and explain why, so your kids do understand. I hope I changed your mind on this innocent looking book!
