Glow

By Julie Dudley-Olsen

A perfectly wonderful lumpy bumpy pumpkin learns to shine.

Ember isn't like the other pumpkins in the patch.

With her crooked stem, bumpy ridges, and a tilt to one side, she doesn't look picture-perfect-

but she dreams of becoming a glowing jack-o'-lantern anyway.

While the other pumpkins bask in the spotlight, Ember wonders if there's a place for someone as different as her.

But when a boy with kind eyes chooses Ember for his porch, something magical happens.

A heartwarming tale about self-worth, dreams, and the beauty of being unique,

GLOW reminds readers young and old that the light inside us is what truly makes us shine.
