A sensitive story infused with optimism and perseverance, this will encourage wholesome conversation with children of all socioeconomic backgrounds; it’s an essential purchase.
Most effective as a read-aloud, this dense history/myth doesn’t quite meet its stated goal of being a story about magic and growing up but does offer a whimsical and informative element to the folklore collections of upper elementary libraries.
Though it does not quite live up to the promise of its predecessor, this book will prove meaningful to children and families with connections to the history and continuing tradition of Pride.
