Synopsis

Celebrate all of the glittering stars in the sky in this tender Classic Board Book by acclaimed author Mary Lyn Ray and Caldecott Honor winner Marla Frazee!

A star is how you know it’s almost night.
As soon as you see one, there’s another, and another.
And the dark that comes doesn’t feel so dark.
What if you could have a star?


Look very closely in this lovely Classic Board Book for all kinds of stars both near and far…because stars are everywhere. Not just in the sky.

Reviews

PreS—"A star is how you know it's almost night." So begins this lovely meditation on these entrancing celestial objects and how we mimic and use their shapes to make wishes, feel important, and remind ourselves to feel shiny, even when our spirits are low. Frazee also showcases the places in nature where stars can be found in different seasons of the year and how they have been gazed upon throughout the ages. The lyrical, engaging text and luminous images are perfect for one-on-one sharing at bedtime or in preparation for an evening stroll.—Luann Toth, School Library Journal
