  • The Case of the Missing Mittens

    The Case of the Missing Mittens

    When Brielle and Bandit Monnig’s Gram’s kitten loses her pink mittens, the six-year-old sisters decide it’s their first big case as the “Glitterbug Girls.” But when their magical friend Glimma’s glittery hints lead them through a string of other missing cozy things, the girls realize there’s more to the mystery — and the solution is both sweet and surprising.

    Not everything magical comes from Glimma — sometimes we make the magic ourselves.

  • The Case of the Sparkly Footprints

    One morning, Brielle and Bandit wake up to find mysterious sparkly footprints leading all around River Creek — across sidewalks, flowerbeds, and even onto their treehouse roof! Are they fairy tracks? Magic gone wild? Or something much closer to home? The sisters grab their clue notebooks, call on Glimma for help, and follow the trail through a day full of giggles, glitter, and good surprises.

  • Cryptic Creatures

    Have you ever seen something move out of the corner of your eye?


    Heard a splash, a rustle, a hoofbeat in the dark?


    Felt like something magical might be just around the bend?

    Then you’re ready to meet the Cryptic Creatures.

    This series takes curious readers into the world of legendary beings—some from old stories, some whispered about online, and some that might be hiding in your very own backyard. Each creature has a name, a tale, and a secret they’re willing to share… if you’re quiet, kind, and just curious enough.

  • The Forgotten Creature Files

    Some things were never meant to be remembered.

    Not because they disappeared… But because forgetting them was the only way to keep them from becoming real.

    The Forgotten Creature Files are a collection of recovered cases—strange, unsettling encounters with things that don’t follow the rules of the world we know. Creatures that don’t chase you… but get closer when you notice them. Voices that don’t speak… until you listen. Shadows that don’t move… until you look away.

    Each file documents a different story. A different kid. A different mistake.

    Because every creature has a rule.

    And once you figure it out—

    It’s already too late.

    As the files continue, a pattern begins to emerge. These creatures aren’t random. They aren’t separate. Something connects them. Something watching from the edges of every story, buried in the details, hidden between what is seen and what is understood.

    Something that is still being written.

    Read carefully. Don’t skip ahead. And whatever you do, don’t let it know you’re paying attention.
