A town learns to welcome the dark

Garden Glen’s all-night brightness leaves Millie Fleur without the nighttime creatures she hopes to find. Her response combines baking moon pies and planting a moon garden with a larger challenge: persuading the townspeople to switch off their lights. The story links its nocturnal garden imagery to a community’s fear of darkness, giving the sequel a clear focus on courage, the natural world, and making room for what is usually hidden. It can be read as a companion to Millie Fleur’s Poison Garden.

  • Children ages 4–8, the age group listed for this book.
  • Young readers interested in gardens, nighttime creatures, and stories about overcoming a community’s fear.

Book overview

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 readers 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.
