shapeshifter - Finding the Fox by Ali Sparkes

Shapeshifter is a book I've read recently, which I quite enjoyed so I'm going to share my thoughts and hopefully convince you to read it. Shapeshifter it's based in England and is about a boy named Dax who is living with and evil step mum and step sister who is obsessed with the colour pink and dolls. The one day while his step mum and sister are out shop at a shopping centre named the "sphinx" something extraordinary happens. Dax gets the fright of his life and turns into a Fox. Yes that's right a Fox

And as you can guess both a government agent and an ambitious young journalist are on his tail. The agent tells him that he is one of many children with special powers and he's been offered a place at a secret government school where he can scroll, and t learn to control his powers. What is he to do? Stay with an overbearing evil step mother that makes his life horrible daily or risk it all at a government boarding school. Also if he accepts, on no account can he tell anybody, especially the journalist.

Well it would be no fun if Dad didn't jump at the chance now would it. When he arrives at the school, he is treated by an amazing bunch of kids with all sorts of talents, from levitation to telekinesis. Dax fits in just fine until the journalist tracks him down for the juicy story that will kick start her career. Then suspicions begin to rise when Dax begins to wonder who exactly is running the school, and what they want from the pupils there. Suddenly Dax's fox sends a put him on high alert...

I really liked this book and it is a part of a series which is great because the story goes on. Again not everyone will like it but this first book is a real page turner I just couldn't stop reading it. Although in my head I thought of lots of different ways things could happen through the book it still ended beautifully and left me wanting more. Also because I had to wait a least a month before I could buy the next book in the series it was torture. This is a highly recommend book by me and I hope you guys will read this book. Also if this became a movie it would be amazing.
