    in the tranquil village of Eldenwood, life is simple and serene. Among its humble residents is Kael, a young blacksmith with an unassuming demeanor but a burgeoning inner strength. Kael's days are spent forging tools and weapons, yet his heart beats with the thrill of adventure. Drawn to the nearby woods, he begins to uncover his hidden talents—exceptional strength and agility that set him apart. In the solitude of the forest, Kael trains relentlessly, mastering his newfound abilities and growing into his potential. His self-discovery journey is abruptly interrupted when a marauding band of bandits descends upon Eldenwood, seeking to plunder its modest wealth and terrorize its people. Fear grips the villagers, and hope seems distant. But Kael is not one to stand by. Clad in a suit of armor he forged with his own hands, and wielding a sword that gleams with his determination, he steps forward to confront the threat. In a display of courage and skill, Kael single-handedly vanquishes the bandits, his movements a blur of precision and power. As the dust settles, the villagers emerge from their hiding places, their fear replaced by awe and gratitude. Kael's heroism transforms him from a simple blacksmith to the village's guardian, a beacon of hope in their darkest hour. His journey has only begun, and the legend of Kael, the hero of Eldenwood, begins to spread.

    The pilgrims encountered Fengxian County where people had been suffering drought for three years. The county magistrate issued a notice to recruit masters to summon rain. The monkey accepted the challenge and asked a dragon king for help, but the latter dared not help without an order from the Jade Emperor. Then the monkey went to the Jade Emperor but was told that the magistrate had offended Heaven, so the county would have no rain until a mountain of rice, a mountain of flour, and a gold lock collapsed. The news dispirited the monkey until deities told him that kindness was a mighty power that could destroythe mountains and break the lock. The monkey returned to the mortal world and instructed the magistrate to heal his soul. The rice and flour mountains and the gold lock collapsed immediately. The Jade Emperor then ordered the deities of rain, clouds, and wind to deliver rain to Fengxian County, driving away the prolonged drought.

    Georgina watches me. She doesn’t try to poke me or pull my tail. She doesn’t push her face into mine, and she speaks very softly. “Welcome,” she says. 
     
    Most shelter animals dream of going home with a forever family. But for Elvis, being chosen by Mrs. Pemberton is a nightmare. He’s been taken away from his sister, Etta, and is determined to get back to the shelter to find her. 
     
    In spite of himself, Elvis becomes curious about ten-year-old Georgina Pemberton, who builds LEGO skyscrapers in her bedroom while navigating her parents’ divorce. The longer he’s in his new home, the more he starts recognizing new feelings: admiration for Georgina’s  
    creations, affection for the other pets, and even empathy for the Pembertons—despite his longing for Etta. 
     
    As Georgina sets out to build her most impressive skyscrapers yet, the Twin Towers, Elvis realizes that maybe both humans and animals have felt the pain of loss, but with some resilience and hope, we all possess the strength to rebuild. 
     
    “Elvis’s journey is sweet and funny and profound.”—Eliot Schrefer, National Book Award finalist
