The Starkeeper Girl: The Sleeping Sea

By Ash Starling

When the tide forgets to return, one small, kind voice may be enough to bring the sea home.

On a moonlit night, Tia wakes to a shore that is much too quiet. The boats lean sadly on their ropes, the shells have stopped singing, and even the sea seems far away. With Lumo, her glowing star companion, Tia follows a trail of bubbles beneath the rocks and into the cold, lonely Deep.

There, Tia discovers that even great big things can feel lost - and that comfort does not always begin with fixing. Sometimes it begins with sitting beside someone and speaking gently.

The Starkeeper Girl and the Sleeping Sea is a softly illustrated watercolor picture book for ages 3-8. A gentle read-aloud story about empathy, courage, kindness, loneliness, and the quiet power of being present.

The smallest wave still finds the shore.
