O Amuleto, Volume 01: O Guardião da Pedra

The mix of magic, monsters, and a young protagonist felt so seamless. I'm curious whether this was inspired by classic fairy tales or something else.

The illustrations have such a rich, immersive quality. I wonder if the artist had a specific inspiration or style in mind during creation.

Despite the fantasy setting, the story tackles real family bonds and fears. Was this a conscious choice to connect with young readers on a deeper level?
