About This Book
Reach for Crowfall when your child feels overwhelmed by news about the environment or expresses frustration that they are too young to make a difference. It is a powerful antidote to ecological anxiety, framed as a high-stakes fantasy adventure. The story follows Orin Crowfall, a servant boy on the industrial island of Ironhold, who discovers that his home's quest for progress is literally destroying the natural world around it. As Orin flees across the ocean with his robot companion, the book explores themes of bravery, stewardship, and the cost of ignoring nature's warnings. It is perfectly pitched for the 9 to 12 age group, offering a sophisticated but accessible look at environmental ethics. Parents will appreciate how the story moves from a sense of helplessness toward a message of agency and hope, showing that even the smallest voice can challenge a broken system.
