I don’t read many middle-grade books, and I have no clue how this one ended up on my radar, but I liked it. Thank you to whoever recommended it. It’s a solid story of magic and love and learning about yourself. It has a Grace Year for younger readers vibe (and I loved The Grace Year). It would be a great vocabulary builder for an upper elementary kiddo who is a strong reader too.  It’s longer than need be though, so they’d have to have a strong attention span.
