I felt so related to Addie. As a woman in my late 40s with years of unresolved issues, I can feel her. It felt like such a personal story as if someone was talking to me directly.

 

JANICE

This is a one-of-a-kind book. The way Bowman made self-assessment and healing fantastical is truly remarkable and a great initiation for making kids more in sync with their emotions. We can teach mental health with this approach to young audiences by making it all fun and games. I feel like this is a breakthrough in the neo-fantasy genre.

I’m absolutely in love with this book. I couldn’t put it down once I picked it up. Before I realized it, I was already halfway through.
