Description
A warm-hearted and enchanting bedtime story that celebrates the rewards of true friendship.
What would you do with a fallen star?
When a little boy stumbles across a lost star, he decides to take care of it, putting it in a jar and carrying it with him everywhere. But when the sky calls out for its missing star, can the little boy and his sister figure out a way to return the star to its friends in the sky...even if it means saying goodbye forever?
Praise for Star in the Jar:
"A cheery, warm-hearted tale, beautifully told."--The Guardian
"I love this cheery tale of two siblings who learn the lesson that when you love something, you sometimes have to let it go."--Angela Redden, Reading Rock Books (Dickson, TN)
"Hay carefully keeps an even tone, never letting the whimsy descend into treacle and always maintaining a sense of wonder. Massini's lively and imaginative illustrations beautifully complement and enhance the text, providing additional insights into the children's activities and emotions... Tender and loving."--Kirkus Reviews
