Cover Reveal For Del Toro Moon by Darby Karchut

Taking a quick break from True Crime Week to help reveal the cover of what sounds like a fun middle grade book. I can easily see my nieces wanting to read this one and I am always on the look out for new books they would be interested in.

Here is a little bit about Del Toro Moon by Darby Karchut before we reveal the cover:

Bad enough Matt Del Toro is the greenest greenhorn in the family’s centuries-old business: riding down and destroying wolf-like creatures, known as skinners. He must also learn how to match his father’s skills at monster hunting. Odds of doing that? Yeah, about a million to one. Because Matt’s father is the legendary Javier Del Toro—hunter, scholar, and a true caballero: a gentleman of the horse.

Now, with the skinners multiplying, both in numbers and ferocity, Matt is desperate to keep his father and hot-tempered older brother from killing each other, prevent his new friend, Perry—a horse-crazy girl who recently moved to their small town of Huerfano, Colorado—from discovering the true nature of his odder-than- oddball family, and save a group of paleontologists from getting skinner-ed.

Luckily, Matt has twelve hundred pounds of backup in his best friend—El Cid, an Andalusian war stallion with the ability of human speech, more fighting savvy than a medieval knight, and a heart as big and steadfast as the Rocky Mountains.

Serious horse power.

Those skinners don’t stand a chance.

There is a lot that I think middle grade readers will love in that synopsis and the cover is pretty adorable and makes the book look like a lot of fun.
