A powerful tale of a future to be avoided.” —Kirkus Reviews

“The action and mystical encounters make the book difficult to put down…an important addition on a timely subject.” —SLJ

An eerie cautionary tale about the dangers of not protecting the environment, tackles an important theme in a compelling way…a fantastical tale with roots in real-world issues.” —Booklist

Earnest, heartfelt, and passionate, this book will likely inspire new environmentalists.” —Bulletin

“BRILLIANT! That’s the first word in my mind about this boldly original, profoundly wise, deeply moving book. It’s a rare gift to any reader, as well as to our planet.” —T. A. Barron, best-selling author of the Merlin Saga

The Last Panther is poignant and lush—steeped in the mystical, while set in a future snared by devastation. Mitchell offers readers a spirited young heroine caught between two very different worlds.” —Ingrid Law, Newbery Honor-winning author of Savvy

This is a book whose every piece is beautiful and fascinating. As the last piece slides into place, readers will step back and see a portrait of a richly imagined (and imperiled) world that will forever change the way we look at our own.” —Eliot Schrefer, two-time National Book Award Finalist, author of Threatened and Endangered 

The Last Panther has the timeless feel of a classic, yet with a timely message woven into its tapestry of myth and quest. I will be urging everyone I know to read this book. Not only is it the essential story of our time—and perhaps our future—but it’s also a moving and tender tale of love, connection, and community.” —Laura Resau, Américas Award winning author of Star in the Forest

“Anyone, animal lover or not, will enjoy this book…a heartwarming story about friendship, bravery, and standing up for what you believe in.” —LitPick.com
