The Story
In the ancient, peaceful village of Willowbrook, Nia lives a simple life where children play with hand-carved wooden toys on the green grass. But when a mysterious gray cat begins stealing the toys (making the heavy cart roll on its own, the wooden horse gallop, and the carved dragon fly), Nia knows that dark magic has arrived.
With only her loyal puppy, Cos, and a humble stone marble in her pocket, Nia must cross the forbidden Boundary Stones and enter the whispering forest. There, she faces a Witch who feeds on fear, and discovers that the strongest weapons against darkness are not force or fury, but kindness and a clever mind.
Perfect for independent reading, family bonding, or discussion, this 10-chapter adventure moves at a fast pace and concludes with "Nia's Secrets from the Forest": a special section distilling the story's lessons into takeaways for kids.
"Heroes can be quiet, observant, and kind, and still defeat the loudest bully."
