About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is transitioning from collecting cards or playing video games to reading longer novels, or when they are navigating the anxiety of a parent's absence. It is an ideal pick for children who express their feelings through play and need to see that their big emotions can actually be a source of strength rather than something to be hidden. Bitsy and Kosh embark on a high-stakes global quest to rescue Bitsy's father, discovering a world where human emotions manifest as magical creatures called magicores. This story beautifully balances fast-paced action with deeper themes of family loyalty, the courage to face one's fears, and the power of collaboration. It is perfectly suited for the 8 to 12 age range, offering a sophisticated but accessible fantasy world that celebrates curiosity and emotional intelligence. Parents will appreciate the positive friendship dynamics and the way it validates a child's internal world through imaginative world-building.
