What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book may discuss the melting of glaciers due to climate change. This is handled in a direct, scientific, and secular manner, focusing on the observable facts and consequences. The resolution is not a story element but an implicit call for greater understanding and awareness of our planet's systems.
