Angie Thomas has smashed it out of the park with her middle grade debut! This book has it all: friendship, family, adventure, villains, magic, characters you love and really get behind, mythical pets and creatures… the list could go on! Aside from being a fantastic read and epic adventure in a new world, this book provides such an education that is so valuable and needed about the lives of Black people in such a seamless way. This is definitely a book that will raise questions and provoke thinking amongst readers of all ages. There will be young readers who read this book and it will be the first time they see themselves represented in fantasy books and that is going to mean so much. I LOVED this book and will be eagerly anticipating the next instalment as there is definitely more to come for Nic, Alex, JP and family!
