The League of Seven
Alan Gratz, Brett Helquist
- Reading
- Try reading the opening together, then pause to see how your reader responds to the danger and the invented world. Continue independently or together according to their interest.
- Themes
- Protecting humanity from the Mangleborn: The Mangleborn depend on electricity, and a secret society tasked with protecting humanity is compromised. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Building a team: Archie must assemble seven young heroes to try to save the world. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- Violence is explicitly noted as part of the plot. Its form, intensity, frequency and consequences are not described, so consider checking in with your reader if this is a concern.
