Little Star: The First Star I See Tonight

Sometimes the smallest star has the brightest light of all!

High above the world, among countless twinkling stars, lives Little Star. He dreams of shining brightly like the other stars, but sometimes he feels too small and unsure of himself to believe that his own light could ever make a difference.

With the gentle wisdom and encouragement of Grandmother Star, Little Star begins a heartwarming journey of self-discovery. Along the way, he learns that being brave doesn't mean never feeling afraid, that confidence grows when we believe in ourselves, and that even the smallest light can bring hope to someone who needs it.

When a special moment arrives, Little Star must find the courage to step out from behind the clouds and discover the wonderful purpose waiting for him.
