About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing a major life transition, like moving to a new home or school, and feels like they have lost control over their surroundings. It is a lighthearted yet meaningful exploration of how we handle unexpected changes and the ripple effects of our choices. Abby and her brother Jonah stumble into the story of Snow White through a magic mirror, only to accidentally ruin the fairy tale's happy ending. The story centers on their frantic and funny efforts to fix their mistakes while navigating the complexities of their new reality back home. This chapter book is perfect for elementary-aged readers who enjoy humor and magic. It subtly addresses the anxiety of a big move and the importance of sibling cooperation. By watching Abby take responsibility for her actions in the fairy tale world, children learn that while we cannot always control what happens to us, we can choose how we respond and work to make things right. It is a secular, empowering choice for kids who need a dose of agency and a good laugh.
