It is so unfortunate that we have to teach our children not to trust strangers, but this is the world we now live in – one in which children are stolen from their families every day. The Legend of the Gilded Scroll and the Danger of a Nice Stranger is a refreshing look at how to teach our children the rules regarding stranger danger.

Although I found the story to be a little too long, the world it creates is fascinating and detailed. The Magic Wishing Scroll, which brings our super heroes to life was a wonderful surprise and the fact that the super heroes are orphans adds a dimension of emotion which was unexpected. The use of manga-style art is appropriate to the times we live in and the artwork is delightful.

The message of the story is very clear and is brought forward in a magical way.

Nada the Trogard is a truly awful character and I can’t wait to see where her evil intentions take our super heroes next!

This book has been approved by the Department of Education and all parents should be reading this story with their children on a regular basis.
