About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels like they do not fit in with their peers or is being unfairly labeled as lazy or incapable. This story follows Glory, a dragonet who has spent her life being told her tribe is worthless and unmotivated. When she finally returns to her rainforest home, she discovers that while the stereotypes seem true on the surface, there is a dangerous mystery afoot that only she has the drive to solve. It is a powerful narrative about reclaiming your identity and finding the courage to lead when everyone else is content to look the other way. The graphic novel format makes these complex themes of prejudice and social justice accessible for middle grade readers. It balances high stakes action with a deeply personal journey of a young female character proving her worth through intelligence and loyalty rather than just brute strength.
