Reach for this book when your child feels like their life is unfairly controlled by adults or when they are deeply immersed in a modern fandom that you do not quite understand.

It is an ideal pick for bridging the generational gap through humor and empathy. Beyond the laughs, the story explores the validity of childhood passions and the hidden pressures of adulthood. Parents will appreciate how the book validates a child's interests while gently teaching them to see the world through someone else's eyes. It is perfectly suited for middle-grade readers (ages 8-12) who enjoy contemporary school stories with a touch of magical realism.
