Honestly, this narrative just came together so well, with everything from themes to dialogue wrapping up a concise plot that had me Googling purely for my own interest and leaves me with the desire to learn more about Scotland!\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Merida is simply a delight. Light enough to captivate a young audience, but with enough depth to keep me thinking about the story, even days after having first read it. I love the way you depict Merida - her coming-of-age arc feels earned, and I would genuinely love to see more within this same world! I know you mentioned that this was your first novel within this genre - I think you nail middle-grade thematic staples, and I know this book would have been a huge hit with me when I was younger!\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"DREAMING THROUGH HISTORY was a sweet, educational read that reminded me so much of the Magic Tree House Series but with the dreaming mechanics of Stravaganza. Merida's character arc was powerful and inspiring, and I loved reading about how she learned to stand up for not only herself, but others who didn't think they had a voice. It's a much needed story for young readers, especially those who think history surely can't apply to them.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelly Kolomiychenko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798990957909\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelly Kolomiychenko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/23\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.52d","brand":"Kelly Kolomiychenko","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48154220855551,"sku":"9798990957909","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ecd2482a-a6fc-4a5e-ab92-946e22b4c5c2.jpg?v=1770788708","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dreaming-through-history-kelly-kolomiychenko-9798990957909","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
