Meet the Characters

The figures and symbols of Book I. Each one carries a piece of the light.

🦉

Willow Owl

The Wise Owl, a guiding presence who teaches at a young one’s eye level: how to ask for help, and how to stand with others.

Inspired by the author’s late English teacher, Mrs. Sandra Smith. Willow is a fictional owl, not a portrait.

🕊️

The Ohana Seagulls

Once known as the Aloha Seagulls. Their new name, Ohana, speaks of family and belonging, and the change is tied to remembrance: the moment separation begins to turn into home.

⛵

KENSPEED

One of the great icons of the EVERgreen universe: the EVERgreen World’s transformed vessel of remembrance, a rainbow-glistening ship of family memory, hope, movement, and home.

In the imaginative EVERgreen World, the historic Peter Iredale shipwreck inspires KENSPEED. The real ship was never renamed.

🐺

The Seawolf

A little Seawolf who learns from Willow, carries that lesson through storms and long seasons, and grows toward becoming the Great White Seawolf.

Individual character pages will be added over time. Characters from Books II and III, which are still in development, will appear when their stories are ready. Younger readers can meet more friends on the Flourishing Guardians™ page.
