Meet Yael, a curious kid exploring her diverse family. One day, a forgotten photo album leads her and Opal the Owl on a magical adventure to an African town through a special portal. Along the way, they uncover fascinating secrets about Yael's family language. This fun story celebrates being different and allows for a delicate exploration of black heritage with a magical twist.
We recommend you read it aloud with your 6- to 8-year-old (especially if your child is a non-native English speaker) while independent reading is suitable for 9- to 12-year-old children.
Yael's Whimsical Quest is a joyful journey into a little girl's heritage, great for Black History Month too!
