Lisa says ...
"When I share Starlight with the children I teach, no matter how unruly the classroom, by the time I am at Page 3 ... you can hear a feather drop ... as every little soul before me settles into the wonder and magic that is Starlight. She is a vibe!"

Inspiration for Starlight ... and dear BridgetIt is in the miraculous moments of travelling to sacred sites & far away lands with a spiritual intent that transports one's imagination to another world. Scaffold these imaginings with some creative guidance to bring dreams into focus then ground this combination with 1 tropical island, 1 son with a bantam obsession and voila -Starlight and Bridget are created. As Starlight says ... Come with me! Take my hand, I'll lead you to my Wonderland.
