Lyra's a very charming child. The story and the characters are magical, especially the bears 😁 I love how much this is truly a children's book and she has so much agency. Children and bears save the world. Wooo!

This is not a children's story; this has many discussions about the Christian church and original sin that may be disconcerting for some and does not put the church in a good light. However, for every growing adult who feels that they do not belong, that they do not believe the path that their parents lay in front of them is right- this is the story to read.
