Welcome to the Glow in the Dark – A Streak of Light by T.J. Scripps Book Tour hosted by the The Children’s Book Review.  

About Glow in the Dark

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!

Glow in the Dark Review

If you’re looking for a magical adventure, this book is for you. The fantasy elements have been superbly done with jump-off-the-page imagination – contagious imagination. It’s a gripping read-aloud to open communication and foster discussion. The bonus of the story includes introspection about finding your own strength and soaring with it. We all have a light shining in us, what is yours? I recommend this book for those looking for a magical experience in the book and your heart.

I received a copy of this book to share my opinion.

About the Author

T.J. Scripps, based in Austin, Texas, spends loads of time in South Africa, where she grew up. She’s a passionate traveler, always off to weird and wonderful places far from the beaten track, hunting for new signs. Her favorite aura-charging spots are lakes, rivers, and oceans – basically anywhere wet and wild. She’s into historical adventures, stargazing, and wandering down trails like a lost hobbit, all while hanging out with kids from all walks of life.

Catch T.J. at any Renaissance festival – she’ll be the enchantress casting spells and charming everyone. Her hobby? Collecting oddities and curios that make you wonder, “What even is that?” She’s also a fireworks and bonfire fanatic. All these unique quirks have woven their way into Ruby’s world.
