Books for Kids: The Little Sophia Vol.1

Short summary

         Sophia Belfort was a child prodigy, and her above-average intelligence lead her parents, her dad especially, to treat her like she was older than she really was—they made her see a psychologist for one, bought her books that were meant for an older audience and asked her to go to school in a grade level too advanced not for her intelligence but for her age. Still, they limited her like she was incapable of thinking for her own. She wasn’t allowed to hang out at a friend’s house after school or go to a summer camp with the other kids. These caused Sophia to become disobedient and distant, and her relationship with her parents suffered.

       Until a friendly ghost named Kate showed up in her room and took her to the most majestic, otherworldly library filled with all the books she loved. They travelled within the enormous library and within the books, and as they went one story after another, Sophia learned a lot of things about the importance of being herself and being with her family.
