Reach for this book when your child feels like they do not quite fit the mold or is beginning to ask questions about social hierarchies and the 'fairness' of birthright. It is an ideal pick for children who are developing an interest in their own ancestry or who feel a tension between who they are and who the world expects them to be. Through the eyes of Lizzie, a girl with a unique gift for seeing the future, children explore the Victorian era and the rigid class structures of the past. The story follows Lizzie and her circus family as they visit a grand Scottish castle. When Lizzie's vision suggests a lowly servant might actually belong in the upper class, it sets off a mystery that challenges the status quo. It is a gentle yet intriguing historical mystery that handles themes of justice and belonging without being overly dark. Parents will appreciate the way it encourages children to look beneath the surface of appearances and value people for their character rather than their titles.
