About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is starting to navigate the complexities of personal responsibility, ethics in 'business,' or the consequences of acting on grudges. It is a perfect choice for siblings who are beginning to explore independence but may need a humorous reminder about the weight of their choices. Frank and Jess are siblings who start a business to help people get even with their enemies, but they soon find themselves in over their heads when they accidentally challenge a real local witch. Through a blend of dry British humor and imaginative fantasy, the story explores themes of justice, accountability, and the importance of making amends. It is highly appropriate for the middle-grade audience (ages 8 to 12), offering a safe space to discuss why 'getting even' often causes more trouble than it solves. Parents will appreciate how it models the process of taking responsibility for one's mistakes without being overly didactic.
