What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
This book is a very light fantasy with no significant sensitive topics. Conflicts are centered around school-based rivalries, academic pressure (in a magical context), and mild fantasy peril. The approach is entirely secular and metaphorical, with challenges representing internal struggles like self-doubt. The resolution is consistently hopeful and empowering.
