Reach for this book when your child feels like an outsider or is starting to ask deeper questions about identity, family secrets, and how to define their own path. This magical realist graphic novel follows Snap, a fierce and independent girl who befriends an eccentric woman rumored to be a witch. As they bond over rescuing baby opossums and studying animal anatomy, Snap discovers that being different is a superpower and that her town's history is more magical and inclusive than she ever imagined. It is a perfect choice for parents wanting to normalize diverse identities and complicated family dynamics through a lens of wonder. While it touches on heavy themes like grief and past domestic tension, the overall tone is deeply affirming and focuses on the strength found in unconventional communities. It is an excellent bridge for middle schoolers navigating the transition from childhood play to more complex social realities.
