Some secrets are heavy. Some are shields. And some are the only way home.

Twelve-year-old Benji Finch has been disappearing into the shadows of the Carnegie Library ever since his father vanished six months ago. He’s looking for a place to hide from the world’s whispers, but instead, he finds a tarnished brass handle set into the floorboards.

Beneath the dust lies the Library of Unspoken Words—a breathtaking sanctuary where thoughts that were never voiced grow like fruit on living trees. Here, the mysterious, silver-haired Elara guards the town’s secrets, including a slim, grey volume with Benji’s father’s name on the spine.

But magic comes with a heartbreaking price. To hear the words he’s been longing for, Benji must steal them from his father’s heart forever. As Benji uncovers the ancient, battle-worn origin of the library, he must decide: Is the truth worth the cost of the memory?

Benji and the Library of Unspoken Words is a moving, atmospheric illustrated novella that explores grief, hope, and the quiet power of the things we leave unsaid. Perfect for fans of The Little Prince and A Monster Calls.
