Land of O book
Hi
I dont remember much about this book (and I dont think that that is the real title either) but it was about a girl and boy who were staying with an uncle (or someone) and the boy disappears one day, there is like a river nearby where a man (possibly called jasper) fishes or pans for gold and he knows where the boy has gone and he has been kidnapped by some strange creatures from another world that u could get to through the river, basically she goes in there to find him but some woodland people rescue her (cos the jasper guy turns her over to the bad guys), all the food she has been given by the bad guys is tasteless and the world is gray but when she meets these new people they give her something that changes the world to colour and she can taste stuff too, they go on a long search and she meets loads of other people including some people who live underground in the dark who give her special gloves and socks to climb walls with, of course she saves them all in the end, dont remember much else. Please help me im desperate to find out what it is!
Thanks
