Tales of Bander Creek: The Glow Thief

By Marc Sampey

When the lights of Bander Creek go out, five unlikely friends must follow the glow into the heart of the forest...

In the peaceful village of Bander Creek, nights are filled with gentle light, glowing mushrooms, dancing fireflies, and the silver shimmer of a giant willow tree at the center of it all.

But on the night of the Glow Festival, the light disappears.

Mira the mouse and her friends - Rowan the steady badger, Juniper the timid rabbit, Pip the snack-loving squirrel, and Luma the thoughtful owl - set out on a journey through the mysterious Lindle Light Forest to discover what was stolen... and why.

Their adventure leads them into the Shivering Thickets, beneath ancient roots, and face to face with a forgotten story that could change their village forever.

The Glow Thief is a gentle woodland fantasy about friendship, courage, and the quiet power of grace - perfect for early chapter book readers and families who love stories filled with wonder, warmth, and heart.
