About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling the 'fish out of water' jitters or struggling with the embarrassment that comes from a high-energy, unpredictable family member. It is an ideal pick for a child who tries very hard to be 'good' and follow the rules but finds that life, and family, can be quite messy. The story follows Princess Lina, a magical girl trying to blend into a regular human school, as her mischievous cousin Jack Frost crashes a class field trip and threatens her carefully constructed reputation. Through humor and lighthearted magic, the book explores themes of responsibility, the pressure to hide one's true self, and the importance of loyalty. It is a gentle, entertaining read for 7 to 10 year olds that validates the stress of trying to fit in while celebrating the unique traits that make us who we are.
