BRIGHT FAMILY GN (2025)

Meet the brilliant, overachieving Bright Family: While Mom's off-planet literally saving the world and Dad's holed up in his laboratory, 12-year-old Nia's trying to win every robotics competition, and her younger brother, Jayden... well, actually, Jayden's just trying to avoid doing his homework so has more time to daydream about kaiju and design giant robots. But when a dimensional portal sends Mom and Dad who-knows-where, it's up to Nia and Jayden (and their robot nanny, Dusty) to bring their parents home. The question is, where in the multiverse could they possibly be? Available in softcover and hardcover editions.

From Epic Originals, The Bright Family series teaches heartfelt lessons about conflict resolution, cooperation, and the importance of family in all its forms. After searching for each other throughout the multiverse and repairing their interdimensional portals together, the Bright family is ready for a vacation! But relaxing days riding water slides and eating space ramen are put on hold when the portal drops them deep in the jungle on an unknown planet rather than at the door of the luxury resort. Told through multigenerational storytelling, the Brights are about to figure out that space travel is a lot like space ramen: It always leaves adventurers wanting more!

It's a brand-new school year, and the Brights are tackling it just like any other family: by hopping into their minivan, taking a portal to a custom-terraformed planetoid, and meeting students from all over the galaxy! But Nia and Jayden are about to learn that there's more to a universal education than befriending a Glob and mastering mechball.  This book includes a never-before-seen bonus tale featuring the Brights' lovable robot nanny, Dusty, and his double from a very different dimension.
