About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels like an outsider or is struggling to find a place where their unique quirks are celebrated rather than judged. This steampunk sequel follows Grubb, a former chimney sweep, as he navigates a world that views his new family of misfits as villains. It is a story about loyalty and defining your own identity when society has already labeled you. While the setting is filled with high-stakes adventure and mechanical wonders, the heart of the book is about the bond between found family. It is appropriate for readers aged 8 to 12 who enjoy immersive fantasy worlds. Parents will appreciate the way it validates the feelings of children who don't quite fit the mold, showing them that 'odd' can be a badge of honor rather than a mark of shame.
