About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is starting to navigate the complexities of middle-grade social dynamics or feels like an outsider. It is an excellent choice for kids who are moving away from traditional princess narratives and toward edgier, more modern stories that celebrate being unique. This adventure follows a group of diverse ghoulfriends on a rescue mission to mythic Greece, where they must overcome their initial judgments of a peer to see his true value. At its heart, the story focuses on teamwork and the importance of not judging others based on appearances or reputations. While the setting is fantastical and full of monsters, the emotional core deals with loyalty and the courage to face fears for the sake of a friend. It is perfectly suited for children ages 7 to 10 who enjoy fast-paced quests and stories that emphasize female empowerment and group collaboration.
