Publisher Description
Wednesday Addams meets The Night Gardener in the sequel to The New York Times bestselling Millie Fleur's Poison Garden. A delightfully peculiar story about embracing the magic of the night.
Garden Glen was afraid of the dark.
Each night when the sun went down, all the lights in town turned on. The houses shone like the noon sun. Every house except for Millie Fleur La Fae’s, of course.
Millie Fleur knows there are enchanting things that can only be glimpsed in the dark. But ever since she moved to Garden Glen, her nighttime friends are nowhere to be found.
Determined to welcome the dark back to town, Millie Fleur bakes delicious moon pies and plants a sweet-smelling moon garden. But before the nighttime creatures will return, Millie Fleur must convince the townspeople to be brave and turn out the lights.
Millie Fleur Saves the Night is a delightfully peculiar story that encourages listeners to find beauty in the darkness. A gorgeous companion to the New York Times bestseller Millie Fleur's Poison Garden, perfect for fans of The Dark by Lemony Snicket and Jon Klassen.
