A journey through a friendship’s past

Ally Litchen’s work as a Lighthouse Witch links the practical task of tending light sprites with a world of shadow nymphs, bindweed goblins, and a ghost cat. A letter from her former best friend draws her away from Vista Cove toward her childhood home, where the journey brings old memories and a new traveling companion, Madge, into the present. Friendship is the connective thread: the novella explores how growing up can alter a bond, and how its history continues to shape the people involved. The source describes it as fully illustrated and autumnal.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in fantasy with magical creatures and a lighthouse setting.
  • Readers interested in stories about changing friendships, growing up, and confronting the past.
  • Readers who enjoy illustrated novellas.

Book overview

Ally Litchen is a Lighthouse Witch, caring for the light sprites that steer ships to safety in Vista Cove. Her only companion is a ghost cat, Flicker, and she'd prefer to keep it that way. She doesn't need anyone else. Not anymore.

 

When an unexpected letter arrives from her former best friend, Ally is called on a journey through the Tanglewood where shadow nymphs and bindweed goblins lurk in the undergrowth.

As she travels back to her childhood home, Ally confronts memories that haunt her far more than any cat. And after unwillingly gaining a traveling companion-a girl her age named Madge-she must come to terms with her past, broken friendship and how it is still affecting her present.

 

A delightfully autumnal, fully illustrated novella from Millie Florence, exploring the complexities of growing up and changing friendships.
