This lyrical fable explores how literacy, kindness, and memory serve as the ultimate forms of resistance against tyranny. While there are moments of peril and sadness, the narrative is deeply rooted in the warmth of found family. It is a sophisticated yet accessible choice for middle grade readers who are ready to discuss justice, the power of words, and the importance of remembering who we truly are.
