The Ogress And The Orphans by Kelly Barnhill
A tender, fable-like tale about a gentle ogress who lives on the edge of a fearful village and quietly cares for a group of orphaned children; when rumors and a mysterious disappearance turn the town against her, the orphans and a few brave residents work to uncover the truth, exposing how gossip, scapegoating, and fear corrode community. The story explores the power of stories, the courage of kindness, and how empathy and honesty can heal and rebuild trust.
