About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is pushing boundaries or struggling to understand why rules exist even when they seem arbitrary. It is a perfect choice for kids who feel they are 'too old' for fairy tales but still crave a world of wonder and high stakes. Through the eyes of siblings Kendra and Seth, readers explore a secret wildlife refuge for magical creatures where curiosity can lead to enchantment or extreme danger. The story centers on the tension between caution and impulsivity. While the plot involves trolls, fairies, and witches, the true heart of the book is about personal accountability and the weight of one's choices. It is developmentally ideal for ages 8 to 12, offering a sophisticated look at bravery that requires more than just physical strength, it requires the wisdom to follow instructions and the courage to admit when you have made a mistake.
