The Light of Stars

Phyllis Glowatsky

The Light of Stars speaks to the rhythm of the sea, the cycle of birth, life and death, and how the light of the spirit shines forever. A little girl and small white dog wandering the beach discover the story of the starfish who are born from stars to play upon the ocean. When the stars become tired and lonely for the sky, their light returns to the heavens to shine upon earth. This comforting fable reassures and sustains both children and adults in times of loss and grief.

Phyllis Glowatsky holds a masters degree in social work and, as a therapist, worked extensively with children and families. Her father died when she was two years old. She has always believed that he is with her. The Light of Stars was inspired by that belief and the magic of long walks by the ocean with a small white dog, who lives with her on the coast of South Carolina.
