The Bridge of Broken Strings

By Dianna Aubin

Milo Hart never meant to break the string.

One wrong note on the school's ancient cello, one loud SPANG ; and suddenly, everything changed.

A strange silver key appears where the string should be, warm to the touch and shaped like a treble clef. When Milo fits it into a hidden keyhole on the cello's side, the air itself ripples with music... and the next thing he knows, he's falling straight into a world made of sound.

Welcome to the Songlands; a place where melodies form mountains, rivers hum with rhythm, and forgotten songs echo through the air. But harmony here is unraveling. A dark presence called the Conductor is twisting music into silence, and the only thing standing in his way is a boy who can barely keep time and a brave girl with a flute sharper than her wit.

Armed with a cello that sings back and a key that hums with ancient power, Milo must learn to play the right notes before the Conductor rewrites the world into quiet forever.

A story of friendship, courage, and the magic hidden in every song, this unforgettable adventure reminds us that even the smallest sound can change everything; if you dare to listen.
