Sometimes the path to adventure glows right beneath your feet. Ella thought stepping into photographs was her secret. But when she invites her best friend Mia to join her to discover the shimmering world beyond the frames, the adventures take on a whole new meaning. Together they explore floating bridges woven of light, hidden marketplaces where stories are traded, and doorways that test their courage. And just when they think they’ve learned the rules, they meet Rowan—a tall, curly-haired boy whose drawings can shift into living portals. The three must learn to trust each other, or risk losing the very paths that connect their worlds. A story of friendship, trust, and wonder, The Shimmering Path reminds us that some adventures are too big to take alone.
