The Guardians of Earth – Oona and the Luminous Beings Now Released In The United States

    LOS ANGELES, CA, October 08, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Guardians of Earth – Oona and the Luminous Beings (ISBN 978-2-89626-650-0, traditionally published by Ariane Editions) by Oriane Livingston has been officially released in the United States. The book is available in paperback edition and retails for $17.99. Both the book and the author have been earning critical acclaim for the creative and mesmerizing storyline and writing.

The Guardians of Earth- Oona and the Luminous Beings is the first volume of a fantasy saga celebrating the beauty of the natural world. It is a love letter to Earth filled with epic adventures beyond imagination, bringing children and teenagers closer to the magic of Nature. The novel is more than just a fantasy story; it is a poetic message of hope for young readers and a call to action for the younger generation. At a time when our planet is in peril as never before, the book is both timely and critical. The author wrote the book to educate children on the need to protect the environment early in their lives. Livingston sees the next generation as the key to save the planet. The book invites children to become a true 'Guardian of Earth'.

"Writing The Guardians of Earth has been a labor of love," said Oriane Livingston. "I sought to weave a tale that would both entertain and educate children – and their parents - about our beautiful Earth".

"I view writing as a form of activism," concluded Livingston. "It is my humble hope that after reading this book, children will walk away not merely with a keener awareness of the beauty of Nature but also use the book as a clarion call to protect our precious Earth".

It tells the story of Oona, an eleven-year-old girl who lives in a troubled household and feels very much alone. One night, her flower starts to speak to her, and she meets Eterna, a woman of extraordinary beauty who embodies the spirit of Earth. Eterna reveals to her that humans are slowly killing her, destroying trees, polluting oceans, and hunting animals to extinction. Oona learns that, along with Nawal and Aqiwo, her fellow Guardians, she must retrieve a sacred crystal to reconnect the filaments of light that once united humans' hearts with the Earth.

The Guardians of Earth- Oona and the Luminous Beings is one of the first (or one of the very few) times that Earth has ever been personified in a novel.
