Reach for this book when your child feels like their mistakes are permanent or when they struggle with the weight of a quick temper. It is an ideal choice for the middle-schooler who feels misunderstood by authority and needs to see that even a moment of destructive frustration can be the starting point for a journey of personal growth and accountability. The story follows twelve-year-old George, who, in a fit of pique during a school trip, damages a museum statue and is pulled into a dangerous, hidden London where statues come to life. Beyond the high-stakes adventure and urban fantasy, the book explores profound themes of shame, the necessity of making amends, and the courage required to face the consequences of one's actions. It is a sophisticated read for ages 9 to 13, offering a metaphorical look at how our choices shape the world around us and the resilience needed to fix what we have broken.
