Who Are the Main Characters in Stories with Starlight?

Meet Starlight & Bridget Bantam

At the heart of Stories with Starlight are two luminous best friends: Starlight and Bridget Bantam (or BB for short!). Together, they guide children through whimsical, heart-led adventures that spark curiosity, compassion, and connection to the world around them.

Meet Starlight

Starlight is a gentle star-being fairy who’s travelled to Earth from her celestial home, bringing light, harmony, and hope wherever she goes.

She softly reminds children ...

“The magic you’re searching for is already inside you.”

Wise, warm, and full of heart, Starlight ...

Believes deeply in the goodness of Earth and all its creatures

Loves the forest, crystals, and all things enchanted

Embodies gentle leadership and quiet courage

Finds awe in life’s simplest, most beautiful moments

Starlight is a real friend to all. She’s the kind of guide children (and parents!) feel safe with, one who honours all life, encourages reflection, and gently leads the way.

Meet Bridget Bantam (BB)

Bridget, or BB as she is known to Starlight, is a small blue bantam hen with a very big personality!

She reminds us that ...

Joy lives in the little things. Joy is its own kind of magic — and sometimes the smallest voice has the brightest spark.

As Starlight’s bestie she’s ...

Energetic, cheeky, and endlessly curious

Outgoing and always thinking about macarons!

Brave in her own hilarious way, diving beak-first into adventure

The yang to Starlight's yin

Together, Starlight and BB are a beautiful balance of differences, reminding children that every kind of magic has its place.

A Perfect Pair

From mystical forests to shimmering beaches and crystal caves, Starlight and BB’s adventures help children:

Understand feelings and navigate friendships

Connect with nature and the rhythms of Earth

Embrace their unique gifts and inner light

Discover wonder in everyday moments

Every page in the series whispers this truth: you matter, and your magic is real.
