The stunning sequel to Daughter of the Moon Goddess delves deeper into beloved Chinese mythology, concluding the epic story of Xingyin—the daughter of Chang’e and the mortal archer, Houyi—as she battles a grave new threat to the realm, in this powerful tale of love, sacrifice, and hope. 

After winning her mother’s freedom from the Celestial Emperor, Xingyin thrives in the enchanting tranquility of her home. But her fragile peace is threatened by the discovery of a strange magic on the moon and the unsettling changes in the Celestial Kingdom as the emperor tightens his grip on power. While Xingyin is determined to keep clear of the rising danger, the discovery of a shocking truth spurs her into a perilous confrontation.

Forced to flee her home once more, Xingyin and her companions venture to unexplored lands of the Immortal Realm, encountering legendary creatures and shrewd monarchs, beloved friends and bitter adversaries. With alliances shifting quicker than the tides, Xingyin has to overcome past grudges and enmities to forge a new path forward, seeking aid where she never imagined she would. As an unspeakable terror sweeps across the realm, Xingyin must uncover the truth of her heart and claw her way through devastation—to rise against this evil before it destroys everything she holds dear, and the worlds she has grown to love . . . even if doing so demands the greatest price of all.

Today’s Book of The Day is sponsored by this week’s Kids’ eBook of The Week:

After her mother dies in an accident, sixteen-year-old Bree Matthews wants nothing to do with her family memories or childhood home. A residential program for bright high schoolers at UNC–Chapel Hill seems like the perfect escape—until Bree witnesses a magical attack her very first night on campus.

A flying demon feeding on human energies.

A secret society of so called “Legendborn” students that hunt the creatures down.

And a mysterious teenage mage who calls himself a “Merlin” and who attempts—and fails—to wipe Bree’s memory of everything she saw.

The mage’s failure unlocks Bree’s own unique magic and a buried memory with a hidden connection: the night her mother died, another Merlin was at the hospital. Now that Bree knows there’s more to her mother’s death than what’s on the police report, she’ll do whatever it takes to find out the truth, even if that means infiltrating the Legendborn as one of their initiates.

She recruits Nick, a self-exiled Legendborn with his own grudge against the group, and their reluctant partnership pulls them deeper into the society’s secrets—and closer to each other. But when the Legendborn reveal themselves as the descendants of King Arthur’s knights and explain that a magical war is coming, Bree has to decide how far she’ll go for the truth and whether she should use her magic to take the society down—or join the fight.

10 grinning sugar skulls
weaving flowers on a vine.
A ghostly T-rex passes by
and–POOF!–the skulls are down to…

With each turn of the page another dinosaur sweeps in and another sugar skull goes missing.
Where are the sugar skulls going? Which one is next? And as the sun goes down, do the families dare follow the flower petals leading to the park in dark?

PICTURE BOOK + AUDIO BOOK!
This “TIMBER! Talking Book” is professionally narrated in a delightfully sinister voice against an eerie musical soundtrack along with a simple “swoosh” that tells when to turn the page. Every child will find their favorite dinosaurs on these boldly illustrated scenes—from T-rex, stegosaurus and pteranodon, to velociraptor, apatosaurus, triceratops, allosaurus and more–including giganotosaurus made popular by Jurassic World Dominion.

A fun Halloween caper, children can hear it again and again with a click of the included QR code. The easy rhyming pattern and visual clues help children predict which sugar skull will disappear next and how many will remain…until there are none.

In addition to being a ghostly entertaining tale, the included Afterword offers cultural insights on how the traditional Day of the Dead activities in the story are performed in Mexico and around the world. Each activity is a way to honor family and loved ones who no longer walk this Earth.
