Book Description
A frail young girl flees a roaring forest fire in the middle of the night desperately taking refuge in a cave where she quickly loses consciousness. She wakes up in a strange, tiny village populated by fairy-like creatures. Her hosts seem intrigued by the sparkles of light that seem to surround her. The village chieftain explains that one of their hunters found her passed out in the forest and brought her back here for treatment. He asks who she is, but she remembers nothing except for a wall and flames. The chief is baffled by her tale as there has not been any fire in the forest lately, and yet the young woman does indeed show signs of burns. Somewhat recovered and dressed in woodland clothes made by the villagers, the young lady asks to meet the hunter who found her in the forest. She asks her savior to take her to where he found her, hoping that seeing the place will restore her memory. But Meliss refuses -- the rules of the village say that only hunters can enter the forest, and all of the sparkles surrounding the girl would catch the eyes of predators living in these woods... What follows is a tale of discovery, magic, tragedy, and adventure, as the girl discovers powers that may or may not be borne of an ancient evil. She befriends a cunning, talking wolf along the way, and together the two set out on a journey that will not soon be easily forgotten. A beautifully illustrated, magical fairy tale sure to appeal to young teens and up, created by the award-winning team behind the world-renowned LOVE series of wordless wildlife graphic novels.

Author: France Trudeau
Publisher: Balboa Press

Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 115
Book Description
In this story about a young girl named Spark and her friend Falcon set in the Sedona valley, the author brings to life for young readers the awe, mystery, beauty, and joy found within all of nature in evocative language that both feeds the imagination and nourishes the spirit. Although this story is intended for young readers, adult readers will also enjoy this beautiful, mystical tale. Spark’s joy of being in nature, whether through play or contemplation, brought her to Red Rock Mesa and her solid friend Rock. This is where she also met a special bird, full of wisdom: Falcon. Voici l’histoire, sise dans la vallée de Sedona, d’une jeune fille prénommée Spark et de son ami Faucon. L’auteure donne vie à l’émerveillement, au mystère, à la beauté et à la joie que l’on ressent lorsque l’on arpente la nature, en employant pour ses jeunes lecteurs un langage évocateur qui stimule l’imagination et nourrit l’esprit. Ce récit à la fois beau et mystique ravira tout autant les adultes que les jeunes auxquels il est principalement destiné. La joie que Spark ressent en pleine nature, qu’elle arpente par le biais du jeu ou de la contemplation, l’a conduite jusqu’au plateau des rochers rouges et à son ami le rocher, Rock. C’est là aussi qu’elle a rencontré un oiseau très spécial, empreint de sagesse : Faucon.
