A modern tall tale that weaves together adventure, humor, and heart.
When thirteen-year-old Daniel loses his grandfather, he loses his belief in magical stories. No more giants stomping across misty Appalachian valleys. No more bandits with hidden treasure troves. Nothing worth believing in-until Daniel stumbles across Grandpa's forgotten workshop. One minute, he's exploring dusty shelves with his little sister, Alex, and troublemaking cousin Brent-the next, they're tumbling into a world where groundhog lawyers argue impossible cases, river pirates sail hidden waterways, and mysterious voices whisper through hurricane winds.
Drawing on rich Appalachian folklore and Cherokee legends, this adventure plunges readers into a realm where stories hold power, and finding one's voice might be the only way home.
Perfect for young readers who:
- Love portal fantasies with quirky characters and unexpected twists
- Are looking for stories that deal sensitively with grief and loss
- Enjoy books read aloud in manageable sessions
- Have shorter attention spans or are reluctant readers who appreciate visual elements
With charming illustrations scattered throughout, brief chapters perfect for bedtime reading, and a story that can be enjoyed one adventure at a time, Story Weaver is the ideal next read for Percy Jackson, The Land of Stories, and The Wild Robot fans.
This heartfelt adventure teaches us that honoring the past doesn't mean you can't create your future. Sometimes the stories we tell ourselves matter most.
