Glow in the Dark: A Streak of Light

by T.J. Scripps

Overview

Glow in the Dark: A Streak of Light is a magical and enchanting fantasy series for kids 8-12, by debut author T.J. Scripps.

A luminous adventure about Ruby Diamond, a seemingly ordinary 10-year-old whose world changes forever when her grandmother gives her a dreamcatcher that opens a portal to The Aura Embassy-a magic academy in space responsible for sending signs to people on Earth.

At The Aura Embassy, students learn the art of sending signs in nature, shapes, numbers, animals, weather, dreams, and light-each one carrying a message to spark the human aura's light. As Ruby begins her first year studying under the guidance of Starland Royals, it's not long before she discovers her own aura holds a rare and powerful energy. 



But dark forces are rising-creatures that feed on human auras-and Ruby must unlock the power of her own glow, or risk the destruction of light across worlds.

Will darkness triumph, or will light save the day?

Perfect for fans of magic school adventures, fearless heroines, and thrilling journeys across the stars-a must-read for book lovers who enjoyed 'Chronicles of Whetherwhy', 'Nevermoor', and 'Greenwild'.
