Story Keeping: The Night I Became a Hero: An early reader, chapter book adventure
Paperback
(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform Feb. 9, 2017)
, 1 edition
Even heroes need help | Ages 8-12
My name is Riles, and I’m a hero. I don’t have super speed, x-ray vision, or super strength. In fact, I’m a pretty normal fifth grader in every way except one – I’m a Story Keeper.
You’ve never heard of Story Keeping? I hadn’t either. Then, grandpa opened that first magical book. The pages glowed. Awesome, right?
Well, awesome until I had to help a space dude recover his memory and battle intergalactic pirates. Those guys have sweet blasters, but they’re super grumpy. Don’t worry, I’ll tell you all about it right here in this book.

Don’t miss The Night I Became A Hero, the first of the Story Keeping Series by A.R. Marshall. If you enjoyed Land of Stories, Epic Zero, or The Chronicles of Narnia, you’ll love this action-packed adventure series. Like The Neverending Story, it’s been known to "pull in" the most reluctant readers…literally.
Read free with Kindle Unlimited. Access to free Audiobook included.
This family-friendly, humorous chapter book is receiving high praise:
“My son is in love, so happy to find a quality adventure book that keeps him reading.”
“An immersive adventure that gave my daughter and I a magical experience.”
“The Story Keeping Series is Magic Treehouse meets The Diary of a 6th Grade Ninja.”
"Somewhere between The Boxcar Children and Harry Potter, this series follows a sibling set in and out of books, saving happy endings. A delightful read for middle grade boys and girls."
Book 1: The Night I Became A Hero
Riles, Sissie, and Little Finn tuck in for story time at grandpa’s house – and everything changes. Saving space spy Drift Elwick is only the beginning.
Book 2: The Night We Met A Dragon
This time, grandpa’s keeping secrets. Riles meet a whiny prince, a wicked magician, and a dragon who knows about grandpa. When he can’t jump out, Sissie must find a way to save the story. Will she be able to save Riles too? Will the Kingdom fall? Can Little Finn stay awake?
Book 3: Secrets beyond the Nile
Story Keeping heroes, Riles, Sissie, and Finn help protect a witty professor as she uncovers the tomb of the Forgotten Pharaoh. Along the way, they discover surprising clues about their parents. But when thieves and a familiar foe try to steal the treasure, these siblings must save the professor - and the story. Will they protect the tomb? Or be trapped in the rubble?
Book 4: Dark Water Pirates
Little Finn has had enough of being left out. Frustrated, he leaps into a book and lands in the middle of dark water. When he’s fished out by pirates, he must decide whom to help. Will the dark water recede? Or will this story be the first to fall? (Spring 2019)
