Tale of the Flying Forest

Tale of the Flying Forest is a breathtaking fantasy adventure that blends magic, faith, and deep emotional themes. Eleven-year-old Anne Applebaum, grieving the loss of her mother and her father's retreat into sorrow, finds solace in The World to Come, a collection of fairy tales about Bei Ilai—a mythical flying forest where children triumph over demons, girls train as knights, and songs carry enchantment.

But when a raven delivers shocking news—that she has a long-lost twin brother named Rainer—Anne embarks on a daring journey beyond the pages of her book. She soon discovers that Bei Ilai is real, and within its mesmerizing landscape lie dangers as fierce as its wonders.
