Aria, a young red headed girl, has been content to wander the forest, talking with the animals and enjoying her life. But this week she needs to focus and finally choose a Guardian (that is, her very own animal companion). The problem is that Aria cannot decide on one! For the first time, Aria must travel the forest by herself to find one. Armed with only her compassion, her adventurous heart, and perhaps a few other supernatural abilities, she must face the dangers of the world, gain a Guardian, and return home in time for her village's Guardian ceremony.
Gaining a Guardian is the first chapter book in the Aria's Adventures fantasy book series. It explores wholesome themes such as facing your fears, empathizing with others, managing emotions, taking the perspectives of others, and learning to choose good friends. It is a cute, adventurous story to be enjoyed by both parents and children alike.
