Once upon and Through the Mountain

By: Bryce Beattie

Narrated by: Hannah La Joy Johnston

Living in a fairyland isn't all it's cracked up to be. Sure, there are wondrous magics to behold, but if you're a kid, adults never tell you the whole story. And Mia, for one, is a little tired of being ignored and having mountains of unanwered questions.

But when Mia rediscovers a long-forgotten rite of passage, she starts to get all the wrong attention. The Matron freaks out and sets the whole town against her.

If the Matron doesn't expel her, Mia just might discover the powerful secret her people have lost. Assuming the mountain doesn't kill her first.

Listen along as Mia comes of age and learns that the crowd isn't always right, and what is right can be painfully difficult. Even when there are pixies in your garden.

Buy it for yourself and the kids

This is a fantastic middle-grade read that all ages will enjoy. It's funny and sweet and has a great theme of truth being truth whether or not anyone believes it.

A great read

This is a great story I would love to read with a granddaughter. I loved Mia and all her questions. Her determination to do what she thought was right was great. Even though people seemed to evade her questions she still followed her heart.

I LOVED THIS STORY. GOOD AND CLEAN

ACCEPTABLE FOR ALL AGES.
