Step into young Jezebel’s life as she and her twin brother start learning root magic, and experience a vibrant story exploring Gullah life and culture, friendship, and history. I absolutely loved this. Every choice Jezebel makes feels authentic to her character, and we’re brought on an emotional ride filled with friendship, grief, the terrors of racism, and magic.
