Reach for this book when your child is beginning to push back against your expectations or struggling with the pressure to follow in someone else's footsteps. While framed through the lens of a fairy tale villain, this diary explores the universal tension between a parent's vision for their child and the child's burgeoning sense of self. It is an excellent tool for normalizing the feeling of being misunderstood by family members. The story is told from the perspective of the Evil Queen as she attempts to mentor her daughter, Raven Queen, in the ways of wickedness. Through humor and 'malevolent lessons,' the book highlights the disconnect between the Queen's ego and Raven's desire to be kind. It is a lighthearted, engaging read for ages 8-12 that opens the door to deeper conversations about identity, the weight of family legacy, and the courage it takes to choose your own path.
