Night Lights (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781088075500)

Six original mystical tales introduce stargazers of all ages to the ancient art of storytelling.

The stars that blanket the night sky are filled with mystery, magic and wonder. For centuries our ancestors looked to these stars for guidance, collecting and sharing stories of their twinkling wisdom. Even today we turn to the stars in amazement, seeking nocturnal delights, inspiration and illumination.

Night Lights is a new and inspired collection of bedtime stories (and just as enjoyable reading in blazing daylight), pairing elements of the zodiac with playful and meaningful tales of friendship, resiliency and a little bit of magic. Whether your child is afraid of the dark or enchanted by it, the characters they'll meet along the way will both engage and comfort.
