For Teachers & Librarians

The Crestwood Chronicles are a natural fit for middle-grade classrooms and library shelves — an engrossing fantasy adventure with real themes of courage, friendship, resilience, and belonging.

Why Crestwood works in the classroom

  • Relatable hero, real stakes. Tom is an ordinary new kid navigating middle school — an easy point of entry for reluctant and enthusiastic readers alike.
  • Rich discussion themes. Friendship, perseverance, courage, and finding your own hidden potential.
  • A complete trilogy. A satisfying beginning, middle, and end for series-hungry readers.
