Mara's Quiet Light
A Little Lights of Bayhaven story — for every little light learning that we all shine in our own way.
Read My Full Story Before You Buy →A new friend has come to Bayhaven — Mara, a little otter who rides a wheeled cart and talks with her paws. Pip isn't sure how to play with her... until he discovers that Mara loves to build, has the best ideas, and shines in her own wonderful way. A warm, chant-along seaside story about welcoming someone new, doing things differently, and the truth that every light shines its own way. With a repeating refrain, gentle inclusion lessons, and the same KDP-safe back matter families love (Say It With Me, Let's Talk Together, Can You Find?, and a Color Me page). This is the children's story companion to RealMum Co.'s guide 'The Children in the Shadow' — written for the little siblings and friends learning to include, celebrate, and love a child who does things their own way. Book 2 of The Little Lights of Bayhaven.
