Luna and the Spark of Wonder (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781738252596)

Join Luna, a bright-eyed wonder-seeker, on a heartwarming adventure that blends foundational literacy and gentle scientific inquiry with timeless life lessons. Each night, Luna tucks a freshly penned "Why?" into her glowing jar and, guided by the wise Professor Owlbright, soars through starlit skies and secret gardens. Her curiosity and wonder spark a step-by-step journey of discovery-observing constellations, tracing cloud formations, and listening for nature's secrets-showing young readers how patient exploration and imaginative thinking can illuminate even the darkest questions.

Luna and the Spark of Wonder delights listeners (ages 3-5) and early readers (6-8), revealing deeper meaning as they grow.

Read-Aloud Magic (3-5)
From Luna's nightly ritual-writing a glowing question and tucking it into her jar-preschoolers are enchanted by luminous illustrations and gentle storytelling. Brief prompts (e.g., "What would you ask the moon tonight?") invite interaction and spark wonder.
