Spark has the biggest fire in all of Tinselvale - and he wants everyone to know it.
So when old Emberton arrives to light the First Lantern, Spark laughs. This creaky gray dragon is slow. He's dusty. He would rather tell stories by the fire than race or loop or roar. He can't even light one small candle.
The other children laugh along. And by the time the laughing stops, something inside Emberton has gone dark.
Then Princess Hannah puts a candle in Spark's claws and asks him to light it.
He breathes in deep. He blazes out bright. The whole tower glows gold - and the little white candle stays dark and cold.
No dragon fire can light it. Not the biggest. Not the brightest. Not the hottest flame in the kingdom.
Only a true kind word can.
A kind word said, a kind thing done -
lights up the hearts of everyone.
The third book in the Tinselvale Tales series, The Princess, the Dragon, and the Kindness Candle is a read-aloud rhyming story for ages 3 to 7. It gives young children more than an instruction to be kind. It gives them something they can actually do: look for someone whose light is low, find the true thing about them, and say it out loud - because a kind word you keep inside doesn't light anything at all.
A story about teasing and repair, about the words that dim people and the words that bring them back, and about a friendship between the very young and the very old.
Each Tinselvale Tale stands on its own and may be read in any order.
