The Magic of Blackthorn Forest — Book 1
The Magic of Blackthorn Forest introduces Emery, a skunk who is often left out because of her scent.
When Emery hears someone crying inside a hollow log, she meets Lulu, a magical Flooficore who needs help. Emery decides to help her, and the two become friends.
Their adventures in Blackthorn Forest offer families a story to share about feeling different and finding someone who accepts you.
Lulu’s Lesson – Book 2
In Lulu’s Lesson, Emery misses Lulu and faces taunts from the rabbit sisters Rosie, Posie and Josie.
When Lulu returns, her spell lets the rabbits experience being avoided and called names themselves. As the sisters begin to understand the hurt they caused, Lulu also reminds Emery that being called names does not make it right to do the same in return.
The story ends with an apology. After reading, you could talk about another way the characters might have helped Emery without using a spell.
