Loganberry Legacy
There's a cult following for David and the Phoenix… discover it for yourself if you don't know it already. Purple House Press brought it back to print in 2000, sold out the hardcover printing, and then issued it in paperback five years later. Oh goodie, now it's cheap enough to be a stocking stuffer for every 10-12 year old on your giving list.
