Wildsmith: Into the Dark Forest (HB)
Author(s): Liz Flanagan, Joe Todd-Stanton
Cosy, cottage-core, low-stakes, lower middle grade fantasy that ticks all the boxes.
When war threatens Rowan's beloved city, she and her mother move to the Dark Forest to live with the grandfather she has never met.
Rowan struggles to adjust to her new life until she rescues a baby dragon from poachers and discovers an extraordinary family secret: like her grandpa, she's a wildsmith - a person who can heal and speak to animals!
The summer speeds by as Rowan fosters a clutch of dragons, makes new friends and even meets a trio of powerful witches.
But danger is lurking on the horizon. Can Rowan step into her power as a wildsmith and protect the Dark Forest?
