Driven by the desire to help her three-year-old daughter settle down into a peaceful night's sleep, Maureen Garth devised meditations that would help her daughter feel secure and cared for. Starbright is a collection of the stories Garth created as her child grew older. These innovative meditations are simple visualisations parents and teachers can read to their children to help them sleep, develop concentration, awaken creativity, and learn to quiet themselves. Relaxation and visualisation, if taught at an earlier age, can enhance not only children's school work but other areas of their lives.

In her engaging, warm, and personal style, Garth teaches parents how to help their children relax, concentrate, and develop artistic and mental abilities, as well as enjoy a good night's sleep.
