About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is grappling with their own sense of identity or feeling caught between two different worlds, such as balancing a home culture with a school environment. It serves as a powerful metaphor for the tug-of-war between family loyalty and the desire for personal independence. The story follows a young girl who discovers her hidden heritage as a changeling and must navigate the treacherous, high-stakes politics of the Faerie Seelie and Unseelie courts. While the setting is one of high fantasy and magic, the emotional core focuses on finding one's voice and making difficult choices when there is no clear right answer. Parents will appreciate the sophisticated writing and the way it handles themes of bravery and self-confidence. It is most appropriate for readers aged 10 to 14 who enjoy fast-paced adventures and are ready for slightly darker, more complex mythological world-building.
