Books with title Stella by Starlight

The night my best friend Gracie disappeared, I had a nightmare. A monster loomed from the shadows around the campfire. I ran. The thing stretched after me… I woke gasping, afraid it might somehow be true. Gracie could always make me feel better – but she didn’t respond to my email. Not that night; not ever. That's what lead to my summer camp counselor job here near Gracie’s home. Hiking and canoeing fill every moment but I don't forget why I'm here. I’m going to find Gracie. The camp-owner, a famous Native seer, isn’t any help. Her herbal healing and Spirit Bear talisman won’t help find Gracie. There's the local ranger and my campers, but will they believe me? I’m alone with this. Somehow, every step toward Gracie takes me nearer to something scary. This is a mystery I must solve.

Starlight is a children's science fiction story set in the future. Giant-sized beings live on the planet Starlight. It is far away from Earth in another galaxy. These friendly creatures help a group of tiny, human astronauts who crash their spaceship on the planet. The humans have come from Earth to try and seek help for their planet which is being destroyed by pollution. They must get help or find a habitable planet to rehome the people of Earth. Each illustrated page is Stig Tomas' original art work in encaustic wax overlaid with pen and ink. Great for kids who love sci-fi.
