About Naomi

Naomi is a friendly human girl with dirty-blonde hair streaked with lilac, one blue eye, one brown eye, and a missing front tooth. When she becomes embarrassed, her cheeks turn pink and her fingers begin tapping nervously.

Proud of the town where she has lived her entire life, Naomi helps Sophie understand Brightwater’s side of its disagreement with Dusty Hollow. Her mother serves on the Brightwater council, but Naomi is open-minded enough to listen to both communities.

Naomi may be shy, anxious, and a little clumsy, but she is also courageous, empathetic, and eager to help. She is a talented cook whose cinnamon-apple pie proves that she has plenty of wonderful surprises to share.
