Description
Listeners will love adventuring with Callie, a nonbinary twelve-year-old determined to become a knight. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss Esme Symes-Smith’s audiobook narrated by Dani Martineck with emotion and great energy. Callie lives in a realm with very strict boundaries between genders—only girls study magic, and boys stick to swordplay. Callie forges their own path ahead, with a pinch of magic and a great deal of determination—but a lot stands in their way. Martineck shines in their portrayal of this confident character in the confines of a disapproving world. Young listeners will love hearing this fantasy story where Callie and their new friends triumph, helping make the path ahead better for all.
