As a mother, I encourage my children often to follow their dreams. Not only that, but I want them to dream big. LARGE even. They have the entire world in their hands and can do whatever they want. I don’t want to direct their lives; I want them to follow their own paths.

Disneybound with Disney Star Darlings

Disney Star Darlings books feature a diverse group of star-charmed girls who both encourage and help others fulfill their own heartfelt wishes. The series encourages girls to be empowered, inspired and motivated to make their dreams come true. The book series, aimed at tweens, follows the Star Darlings through their own pursuit to fulfilling their wish.

With the the help of their friends, each Star Darlings adventure helps to provide positive examples to further inspire tweens to follow their dreams. Using books, dolls, music and apparel, along with a mobile app and animated shorts, Disney Star Darlings offers an innovative experience that encourages tweens to harness the power of their individuality, highlights the power of making positive choices, and shows that they can make anything possible.

For my 10 year old, Jaci, she not only enjoys reading about each Star Darlings character, but she is moved to action as well. Jaci’s biggest dream is to become a fashion designer. She is infatuated with all things fashion related and feels inspired by the girls as she reads about them. The combination of Jaci’s dreams and the Star Darlings encouragement helped Jaci create a few Disneybounding outfits inspired by her favorite characters.

She found a way to seamlessly put into action the words she reads in each new book of the series:

Cassie Comes Through

The day Cassie has been dreading since she first arrived at Starling Academy is here. Lady Stella, the headmistress, assures her she’s going to do a starmendous job. Cassie is so sensitive and perceptive she’ll be a natural! But her mission is even harder than she feared. Everything just seems all wrong. And there’s no help in sight.

Piper’s Perfect Dream

Mysterious things continue to happen on Starland every day as the girls wait to see who will go on the next Wish Mission. Piper has a dream that she will be the one and indeed she is. Piper has a lot to learn when she finds herself working at a diner.

Astra’s Mixed-Up Mission

Star athlete Astra is chosen for the next Wish Mission. Her overconfident nature leads her to quick conclusions about her Wisher’s true wish. Can Astra put aside her own interests and assumptions and help Emma before time runs out?

Tessa’s Lost & Found

Tessa is selected to travel to Wishworld where she finds herself in a spot that’s perfect for her—an animal shelter. When a terrible storm hits, Tessa and her Wisher, Lizzie, must work together to take care of the helpless animals in the shelter, while Tessa tries to discover Lizzie’s real wish and help grant it before time runs out.
