Tiger Honor

Reach for this book when your child is beginning to question the rules they have grown up with or is navigating a conflict between loyalty to their family and their own internal moral compass. Tiger Honor follows Sebin, a nonbinary thirteen-year-old cadet who dreams of joining the Thousand Worlds Space Force. When Sebin's own clan is accused of treason, they are forced to decide if honor means following their elders or doing what is right for the galaxy. This is a high-stakes space opera that masterfully blends futuristic technology with traditional Korean mythology. Beyond the lasers and spaceships, it offers a profound exploration of gender identity and integrity. It is perfect for middle-grade readers who are developing a sense of social justice and want to see themselves reflected in a hero who is brave, complex, and authentically nonbinary.
