My Brain Full of Stars
Star loves the night sky. She loves watching the stars sparkle, drawing the skies in her notebook, and searching for shooting stars. But Star’s own brain has a special kind of sky inside it, one filled with tiny sparkles and messages that help her think, move, feel, and dream.
Sometimes, those sparkles become very busy. Star may shake, feel scared or confused, hear things differently, or become very tired. These moments are called seizures. With the love and support of her mom, her doctor, and her friend Ryan, Star begins to understand epilepsy and discovers that it is only one part of her story, not the whole story.
My Brain Full of Stars is a gentle and imaginative children's story that introduces young readers to epilepsy, seizures, compassion, friendship, and understanding differences. Through Star’s journey beneath the night sky, children are encouraged to ask questions, support one another, and remember that every child has their own unique light.
A comforting story for children and families that celebrates individuality, understanding, and the beautiful reminder that every kind of light belongs.
