A parent would reach for this book when their child is beginning to feel overwhelmed by news about climate change and is looking for a sense of agency or magic in the natural world. In this fourth installment of the series, the story follows young Alexa as she navigates a world where environmental collapse is awakening ancient, mystical forces. It addresses the emotional weight of global responsibility through a lens of high fantasy, exploring how bravery and family bonds can provide stability during times of chaotic change. While it is appropriate for middle grade readers, the complex mythology and darker environmental themes make it a great choice for children who prefer stories with deep world-building and high stakes. Parents will appreciate the way it frames ecological protection as a heroic, spiritual journey rather than just a scientific problem.
