Reach for this book when your child is beginning to transition from early readers to more complex chapter books and needs a high-stakes, fast-paced adventure to keep them engaged.

The story follows a group of friends who enter a magical, disappearing city to rescue a captured genie, emphasizing that even the smallest individuals can make a significant impact through loyalty and teamwork. While it contains elements of peril and sorcery, the tone remains accessible for the 7 to 10 age group. It is an excellent choice for building reading stamina and encouraging a sense of wonder about hidden worlds and the power of doing what is right even when it feels scary.
