THE SHADOW THIEF

Adornetto, a teen author and aspiring actress, brings her own work to life in a childlike yet insightful narration. Milli and Ernest are two children living in the town of Drabville who see things a little differently from their family and friends. When they’re kidnapped and pulled into the magical world of Lord Aldor, they do everything they can to free the shadows that were stolen from the residents of Drabville. Adornetto provides an expert reading of her first book—proper and precise yet expressive when it comes to Milli’s view of the world. Adornetto alters her tone just enough to differentiate between the characters without creating unique voices for each of the many characters in this magical tale.
