Aurora of the Northern Lights by Holly Hardin

Come enjoy a rhyming Christmas tale filled with magic and adventure in Aurora of the Northern Lights.

On a snowy night, a baby girl is born to a man and woman who name her after the Northern Lights. Years later, young Aurora finds herself alone after losing her parents.  Follow Aurora on her journey through lands of mystical creatures and magic in her search for home.

This is a beautiful, touching story set to rhyme that follows the young protagonist, Aurora as she travels from place to place in hopes of discovering where she truly belongs.  At first I was concerned that Aurora’s loss might be too difficult for young readers to handle, but Hardin’s eloquent and lyrical prose, coupled with Donald Vanderbeek’s stunning and delightful illustrations will touch your child’s heart and fill her with the magic of Christmas.  Your young reader will delight when Aurora discovers a famous bearded, jolly old fellow, and be inspired by the feeling of belonging once Aurora finds home.

I highly recommend Aurora of the Northern Lights by Holly Hardin and eagerly await her next release.
