Sophie's Growing Scar — front and back covers

Sophie's Growing Scar

Sophie is a shy and timid orphan with no friends at school. Her life is turned upside down after she meets a mysterious old man at the library. Though they quickly become friends, much about him remains a mystery — what does the symbol on the back of his hand mean, and why does he seem so connected to the old wooden bench in the corner?

One day, Sophie receives a parcel containing an unfamiliar green stone, a map, and no further explanation. And then her only friend is suddenly nowhere to be found. Was the map somehow connected to him?

To find out, Sophie decides to follow it — and this leads her on a magical adventure beyond anything she could have ever imagined. Will she rise to the challenges ahead? Does she have what it takes to survive the enchanted forest?

Sophie's Growing Scar is a tale of inner struggle, self-discovery, friendship, and loyalty — reminding us that our scars are symbols of our ability to heal and grow.

Every scar is a story waiting to be told.

The greatest magic lies in daring to find your way.

Friendship is the truest spell of all.
