Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the pressure to be the best or is having a hard time showing grace to others after a win. While the provided description mentions Stephen King, Richard Paul Evans's The Tower is actually a gentle, allegorical story about a young man who builds a magnificent tower to be closer to the stars and above everyone else, only to find that his isolation brings him no joy. It addresses the emotional needs of belonging and the hollow nature of pride. Parents will appreciate how it uses a fable-style narrative to explain that true happiness comes from connection and kindness rather than status. It is perfectly suited for children ages 4 to 8 who are navigating social hierarchies for the first time or dealing with the sting of being left out.
