THE MUSIC THE STARS SANG
Meer oor hierdie e-boek
Once Adi and Rupe are chased into the magical kingdom of Dream Miners, where miners unearth dreams in the form of gems, Adi welcomes the escape. She feels at home, like she’s stepped into one of Gran’s stories.
But Shadows taint the jeweled gardens blanketing the forest kingdom. Left unchecked, they are growing into a Darkness that will turn dreams into nightmares for children everywhere – unless Adi taps into her unpolished musical talent to stop it.
In a world filled with music, star lore, and Shadow monsters, Adi must decide. Will she risk her own memories to protect the dreams of others?
For readers who also enjoyed The Girl Who Drank the Moon, Kelly Barnhill; Circus Mirandus, by Cassie Beasley; and The Graveyard Book, by Neil Gaiman.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:
“A girl in foster care, a musically-obsessed boy next door, gem-encrusted gardens, shadowy, fairy-like creatures, dreamy tales of starlight and moonbeams, and tragic sadness come together in this vivid new novel. Fans of Kelly Barnhill, Claire Legrand, and Holly Black will escape with this sad, funny, and charming, fantasy adventure.”
“Beautifully written and lyrical, this is a story that defines love, loss, and magic in a whole new light. TL Cervantes has a dreamlike way of engaging readers, while also delicately dealing with deep issues. Perfectly suited for middle grade readers, and also delightfully reflective for an older reading audience.”
"A Katherine Applegate style of amazing, with a healthy dose of heart pumping conflict that keeps readers on the edge of their seat."

“Lovely, literary quality.” – P. Knapp
"The final chapter wrapped up all the emotions that I was hoping to see.
