Treasure at the Heart of the Tanglewood by Meredith Ann Pierce

3.0

Brown Hannah lives at the edge of the Tanglewood where she is sought out by the villagers for her healing abilities. Each month, she pulls the flowers that grow from her head and uses them to create a special brew for the wizard who lives deep in the Tanglewood and protects its mysterious treasure. Knights often come searching for the treasure, but they are never seen again. One day, Hannah falls in love with one of them and later witnesses his transformation into a fox. Hannah starts to see the wizard in a different light and takes a journey where she discovers both her origins and her vast benevolent power.

Spoiler

It turns out she is the treasure, and she is kind of being held captive by the wizard. Hannah, it turns out, is a kind of Demeter-type.

Best for ages 12+
