About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their child is beginning to grapple with the blurred lines between their rich inner world and the responsibilities of reality. It is an ideal choice for the creative child who feels more at home in their imagination than in the classroom, or for a child navigating the pressure to be productive rather than playful. The story follows a young girl whose drawings of horses miraculously come to life, offering a profound but gentle exploration of the wonder and the heavy responsibility that comes with making one's dreams a reality. This book speaks to the specific emotional need for agency and the discovery of one's unique power. It is perfectly suited for children aged 8 to 12 who are transitioning into a more independent sense of self, emphasizing that while our talents are magical, they also require care and stewardship. Parents will appreciate the way it validates a child's creativity while introducing the concept that every action has a consequence, even the most beautiful ones.
