(PRLeap.com) "A Story of Fire", a new book by Alice G. Gosfield, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Inspired by her granddaughter, this immersive adventure invites young readers to not just read a story, but to physically help build its world.

"A Story of Fire" transports readers to a distant land where a community depends on a powerful sorceress for their only source of fire. When a messenger bird brings news that the sorceress has vanished from her mountain peak, a brave young girl named Larissa sets out on a perilous quest to bring the flame back home. Accompanied by an "unimaginable friend," Larissa must overcome extraordinary obstacles and unlock a hidden power from within.

What sets this book apart is its unique interactive design:

Reader-as-Illustrator: While the prose is rich with vivid detail, the book contains blank pages throughout, encouraging children to draw what they visualize and become the story's co-illustrators.

Empowering Themes: The narrative focuses on courage, friendship, and the discovery of inner strength.
