About The Book

Discover the fourth collection by Shelby Leigh, the bestselling poet of Changing With the Tides and Girl Made of Glass, where she invites you to embrace the present, nurture self-growth, and discover hope in every moment of your journey through the sands of time.

Ever feel like you’re running out of time? Feel lost thinking about the future? From Sand to Stars provides a reminder that every day is a new day to find joy and self-acceptance, no matter where you are in life’s journey.

Exploring the concept of time and how it affects our mental health, From Sand to Stars will make you feel heard and seen, while inspiring you to embrace all life has to offer.

Sand, section one, represents the hourglass—how time gets away from us and causes overthinking and anxiety. Soil, the second section, represents self-care, growth, and the joy that surrounds us when we look for it. Finally, Stars provides an uplifting final section on finding hope and healing around us.
