We’re excited to share that Glowberry Bears was recently featured in The Atlanta Voice, highlighting the family, creativity, and vision behind our growing world of stories, characters, and adventures.

The feature takes readers behind the scenes of Midas Well Entertainment, the family-owned company founded by our patriarch, Robert Burgess Sr., in 2019. It introduces the Burgess family and shares how Robert Sr., Cynthia, Robert Jr., Candice, and Jared each bring their own creativity, experience, and ideas to the Glowberry Bears journey.

A Family Creating Together

One of the things we love most about Glowberry Bears is that it truly grew from a family coming together.

The Atlanta Voice explores how each member of our family contributes in different ways, from storytelling, music, and filmmaking to project management, marketing, writing, and product development. While we each have different roles, we share the same vision: to build something meaningful that families can enjoy together.

The article also shares the story behind the Glowberries themselves. What began with Robert Sr. looking at an illustration of berries and imagining them glowing eventually became the foundation for Glowberry Island and the world our characters now call home.

The Story of Little Glow

The feature also takes readers into the story behind The Legend of Little Glow, our first book.

The story follows Little Glow, an adventurous young bear who is still discovering what makes him special. Along with his friends, Little Glow must work together to stop the Snorts from stealing the light of Glowberry Island.

At the heart of the story are values that mean a lot to our family — believing in yourself, teamwork, perseverance, kindness, and appreciating what others bring to the table.

These are the same values we hope to continue sharing through our books, music, toys, and Cartoons for Kids.

Growing the Glowberry Bears Universe

Glowberry Bears is becoming more than a single story. We’re continuing to expand the world through new books, merchandise, music, clothing, and animation.

The Atlanta Voice also highlights Glowberry Jam, our catchy children’s music video featuring the Glowberry Bears characters. More stories and animated adventures are on the way as we continue building the Glowberry Bears universe.

Our goal has always been to create entertainment children can enjoy while giving families positive messages they can carry beyond the story.

Sharing Our Story

We’re grateful to The Atlanta Voice for taking the time to learn about our family, our journey, and the vision behind Glowberry Bears.

The feature gives readers a closer look at the people and ideas behind the brand and how a simple idea about glowing berries grew into a world filled with friendship, imagination, family, and light.
