Baxter Bean and the Secret of Hearth

Heroes are made through choices, not abilities.

Baxter Bean never wanted to be a hero. Back on Earth, he was just an awkward middle schooler who preferred hiding from bullies to standing up to them. But when a case of interdimensional mistaken identity lands him on the planet Nivmo, Baxter finds himself in a world where magical abilities called "hearth" determine your worth—and he has no powers at all.

In this thrilling second adventure, Baxter continues his journey alongside Ulani, a brave girl fighting for her people's freedom, and Royal, a prince who doesn't believe in himself. Together, they face their greatest challenge yet: a powerful tyrant who threatens to destroy everything they hold dear.

Baxter is still the same shy kid who'd rather avoid a fight, but when the people he's come to love need him most, he must make a choice: stay safe or step up. In a world where strength seems to come from abilities, Baxter will discover that true heroism isn't about the powers you're born with—it's about the courage you choose to show when it matters most.

Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson and Keeper of the Lost Cities, this middle grade fantasy adventure proves that the greatest magic of all is believing in yourself.

Recommended for ages 8 and up.
