A magical story about the importance of kindness and friendship.
When a little girl finds a lost star, she takes it home and cares for it, just like a beloved pet. She reads it stories, makes it special snacks and tucks it into bed at night. The more she cares for the star, the brighter it glows. Until, one day, it's time to let go...
“The concept of letting go is shown in an entirely positive way as the star flies back home to watch over the girl from his spot in the night sky. Rhyming text and gentle storytelling help make this the perfect book for bedtime or snuggling up with; it feels like a really special story and is a joy to read” - Booktrust
