Thistledom: A Kingdom is Born

Grades 5 & up

In a tiny kingdom somewhere in the Land of Mitten lies Thistledom, home of intelligent and resourceful little people called Nobbies. Author John LaCroix’s marvelous mix of characters, creatures, and life values binds a carefully crafted narrative, encompassing a truly refreshing tale for all ages. Struggles with nature and strange outside forces reveals much about character, courage, pride, and the price of personal commitment. Powerful personalities and partnerships forge and shape a kingdom, but tragedy linked to an eerie presence in the bog at the base of the mountain alters the course of Nobby history forever.

Spanning generations replete with great moments of glory, haunting disappearances, deep family anguish and feats of heroism, Thistledom endures as a land filled with opportunity, challenges, and choices not unlike our own. Its legacy is inscribed on an old pendant: A Seeds Power Lies in Its Promise.
