We are officially in the month of all things “Spooky”. While things might cause fright during Halloween season, not all things have to be so scary. Let me tell you about a great new release from author Stephen G. Bowling – Winslow Scarecrow: Scarecrows are Supposed to be Scary.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Glow in the Dark: A Streak of Light
Ruby, a regular 10-year-old girl with fiery red hair and wild green eyes, has her life turned upside down when her grandmother gives her a magical dreamcatcher. One night, it transports her to the dazzling planet of Starland, where she discovers The Aura Embassy, a magnificent glass castle floating in space. There, she meets alien kids and Royal Light Beings, who welcome her as one of their own. Excited to unravel Starland’s mysteries and connect them to her own world, Ruby faces danger as sinister Dark Beings threaten to extinguish all light, both on Starland and Earth. With thrilling challenges ahead, Ruby must maintain her disguise, uncover secrets, and stop the dark forces before it’s lights out forever. Join Ruby on her daring quest to save the world’s light!

About the Illustrator

OUR REVIEW
A precious gift from a beloved grandmother sets the course for an exciting adventure for young Ruby. While Ruby travels to Starland and learns of the importance of how the “Light Beings” help with the humans aura, she also learns of the not-so-bright side of things when she encounters the sons of the ruler of Shadowland.
This is really a true way to introduce young minds to a captivating story and how the use of imagination and dreaming has endless potential and boundaries. A light thrill that will enthrall all who read it.
I am well over the age of the suggested age for this book, but I always consider the “+” means that a book or product can be enjoy by kids big and small. I am on the “big kid” side of that range.
The book is available for purchase on Amazon in paperback, hardcover or for Kindle. It is ideal for children ages 8+ and a great read at 202 pages.
