The Girl from the Northern Mountains Lois Furtado

It usually takes a deep journey in God for a person to feel secure in their identity while also accepting others as they are. In The Girl from the Northern Mountains, we meet a young girl who embarks on that journey. Set apart from her native people by the Twinkle that she inherited from the Eternal Starlight, The Girl grows up knowing that she is different. When her family makes the decision to leave the Northern Mountains where she was born and travel to the Newlands, the Twinkle goes with her, even as all she knew about herself and the world gets left behind. A story about the desire to belong and the deep need we all have to embrace forgiveness as we accept people, The Girl from the Northern Mountains is for anyone who has ever wondered who they are and where they fit in. It's a story for all of us!
