Waterstones Children's Book of the Month for March 2026

Enter a world of enchanted books and monstrous secrets in Sangu Mandanna's magical fantasy. Vanya and the Wild Hunt is a gripping series opener filled with stunning illustrations by Kristina Kister. Perfect for fans of Rick Riordan, A. F. Steadman and Pari Thomson.

'Vanya is my new favourite neurodivergent fantasy heroine! A wondrous magical world, curious secrets and monsters from myths makes an exciting new fantasy adventure. I adored it!' - Lizzie Huxley-Jones, author of Vivi Conway and the Sword of Legend

Eleven-year-old Vanya Vallen can talk to books. But more importantly, the books talk back.

When her family is attacked by a monster she believed only existed in legends, Vanya discovers that her parents have been keeping secrets, and that monsters do exist. Soon, she is whisked off to the enchanted school of Auramere, where she joins the ranks of archwitches and archivists.

Auramere is full of magic . . . and monsters. And the Wild Hunt is on the prowl. It's up to Vanya to unmask its leader and stop them from destroying the only place she's ever truly belonged.

I really enjoyed this story of a magical school in India, attended by pupils from all over the world. The cast of characters is thoroughly diverse, and the setting is charming. I appreciated having a neurodivergent lead who is accepted and supported by the school, as well as several queer characters.
