Of Lights in the Night: Friends & Adventure by Sean Noonan

A review from JOANNE REYNOLDS

Elannah and Sam have just enjoyed a wonderful evening with their parents, watching fireworks. They are snug in their beds and sleeping.

They are now, in their dreams, on their new bikes and racing through the sky to meet up with their friend Rodger the Badger. Rodger informs them of a fireworks display being put on by the Great Wizard Grumphspawn, the best ever seen.

We are treated to the display in wonderful prose. Through the mind of a child, you can envision the beautiful displays taking place for the crowd that has gathered.



The story is complete with a love of family, with each child displaying many emotions, especially love and kindness toward each other and others. This is definitely a positive story with great adventure and well worth the read. You will be captivated by the descriptive language and the true emotions portrayed.

The drawings by Sean Noonan's young daughter are very well done and encompass the story well.

I will look forward to the next installments and the new adventures of Elannah & Sam.
