Reach for this book when your teen is struggling with a lopsided friendship or is feeling defined by someone else's needs. While many fairy tales focus on the devotion of a hero saving their loved one, this story asks what happens when the person being saved is actually quite toxic. It is a sophisticated reimagining of The Snow Queen that prioritizes self-respect over blind loyalty. Greda's journey through a frozen, magical North is a beautiful metaphor for the coldness of a relationship that does not give back. As she encounters talking ravens and a practical reindeer, she realizes that her worth is not tied to her childhood friend, Kay. This is an empowering choice for parents of older teens who are navigating the transition into adulthood and learning to set healthy boundaries. It normalizes the difficult realization that sometimes growing up means letting go of the people we used to love.
