Children's Corner: The Glimmers with Robert Agnello

The Glimmers with author Robert Agnello

Robert is an Emmy-winning artist of TV shows such as Carmen San Diego & Pete and Pete.  His children's book The Glimmers recently won the Mom's Choice Award.

What is a Glimmer you ask? A Glimmer is a being of light. They are what make the world glow. There are Glimmers of love, Glimmers of hope, Glimmers of compassion, Glimmers of joy and Glimmers of truth. Ruby is a Glimmer of truth or, as the Glimmers call her, a truth glimmer.

Glimmers have been around since the beginning of time. When the earth was formed, all the love and joy on this beautiful planet produced these little beings of light. They surrounded all the plants and animals and every living thing. They have survived for thousands of years on harmony, trust, love and innocence.

There are less and less Glimmers now than there have been in the past because love and honesty have been replaced by hate and greed. When you are truthful and compassionate you are surrounded by glimmers and you have a glow. When you are mean or bad your glimmers turn into dimmers and your glow is no longer bright. Now don't get me wrong, you can turn a dimmer back into a glimmer by just telling the truth or doing a good deed.
