Reminiscent of The Giver, this literary debut middle-grade fantasy is beautifully written and stunningly creative.
Ginger Johnson earned her MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts, and lives in the Seacoast area of New Hampshire with her husband, two sons, a coop of sassy chickens, and a tank of doctor fish. The Splintered Light is her debut novel. www.gingerjohnsonbooks.com @WriteGinger (Twitter) @gingerjohnsonbooks (Instagram)
A gorgeously built world that asks readers to plumb the nature of
creation.
*Kirkus Reviews*
Johnson . . . builds a unique world, turning ordinary attributes
into things of wonder.
*Booklist*
Ginger Johnson’s debut novel is like a deep dive into a
world-within-a-world, a heart-within-a-heart. Be prepared for
revenge, jealousy and betrayal. But prepared also for beauty, light
and joy.
*Kathi Appelt, Newbery Honor winner and National Book Award
finalist*
I adored The Splintered Light! The joys of the senses and the
glories of creation shine in this radiant debut.
*Julie Berry, Printz Honor author of THE PASSION OF DOLSSA*
Ginger Johnson's debut is as vibrant as the colors her characters
wield in this novel about creativity, collaboration, and
creation.
