BOOK
The For Gotten Words: That Saved the World
The Forgotten Words That Saved the World is a magical adventure for readers aged 7 to 9, following bickering siblings Thomas and Alexandra as they discover a hidden realm tucked behind their garden hedge. At first they are delighted, enjoying a place where steaming baos grow on trees and leaves taste like lollipops, but these treats come with an unexpected responsibility: they have not found a carefree playground, but have been chosen to restore balance to a dying world. To succeed, they must master the one thing they dread most, the 'Forgotten Words' of the Mandarin language, decoding ancient characters to activate magical powers, solve environmental puzzles, and track down a missing dragon. This debut fantasy blends high-stakes adventure with relatable sibling chaos, serving as a mirror and window for Third Culture Kids and young adventurers everywhere.
