Have you ever known the answer — felt it deep down — but stayed quiet?
That’s Phoebe’s Bright Adventure: Finding the Light Within
She’s the dependable girl who always notices the light in other people. The first to say, “You’ve got this.” The last to believe it about herself. She gets in her head. She overthinks. And yet…
Phoebe’s Bright Adventure is about the moment she finally raises her hand — even when her voice shakes. The moment she realizes what’s been true all along.
As a writer, I knew her story was worth sharing because it reminded me of something we forget too easily: when you believe in yourself and stand in your truth, you don’t need to keep proving it. You only need to say it once — clearly, quietly, without apology.
Phoebe’s journey is about taking risks, finding your voice, and daring to begin again. Parents will see themselves in Phoebe because she reminds us that it’s never too late to start fresh. Children will feel seen by her because they’ve been there too — nervous to be called on, wondering if they’re enough, waiting for their moment to shine.
And here’s the real question: What happens when the girl who always says “yes” to others finally says it to herself?
That’s Phoebe’s adventure. And maybe it’s ours, too.
Phoebe’s Bright Adventure: Finding the Light Within is now available on Amazon. Share it with a child you love, or keep it close for yourself as a reminder that the light has always been yours.
