Reach for this book when your child is struggling to find their own voice within a sibling group or needs to see that bravery often looks like cooperation rather than solo heroics. This graphic novel follows three siblings: the responsible Elowen, the energetic Oliver, and the quiet, observant Pimm: as they venture into a mystical forest to find their missing dog. It is an ideal choice for children who feel dwarfed by older siblings or who are navigating the transition from imaginative play to real-world responsibility. The story beautifully explores the dynamics of family loyalty and the way different personalities contribute to a successful team. While there are moments of tension and spooky folklore elements, the core of the book is grounded in the deep bond between the children. It is perfectly suited for readers aged 8 to 12 who enjoy lush, atmospheric world-building and stories that validate their inner strength. Parents will appreciate how it models conflict resolution and the importance of listening to every family member, even the smallest ones.
