Little Star Finds His Shine
Little Star sees so many other stars around him - everywhere he looks, in fact - and he believes that they are much more important than he is. This fills him with a lot of big feelings - sadness, discouragement, even a little jealousy. Why is he up here in the sky when it seems like nobody around him or on Earth could possibly notice his shine at all? But when Sun comes up, she has a lot to say about Little Star’s place in the universe - and he finally realizes just how important he truly is.
When you’re little, it’s easy to think that nobody notices or even cares about you… but it’s certainly not true. The most valuable lesson we can learn at a young age is that each of us was created for a purpose and that we all have infinite worth.
This is one of the sweetest, most adorably illustrated books I've ever seen, and the message is spot on! Little Star Finds His Shine is a great story for children and adults alike!"

Five Stars for Little Star
I've read this story every night at bedtime to our five-year-old since I got it. It has quickly become his favorite book and I'm not mad about it."
-Thomas
I'm glad to see that the author's emphasis on love and kindness includes loving and being kind to oneself. Little Star learns an important lesson about his self-worth that kids can really use in this day and age."

Love, Kindness, Acceptance, Inclusion
Why are these four things so important to me?
Because they are the keys to happiness. Not just ours, but other people's as well.
When we can love, be kind to, accept, and include others - particularly those who are different from us - humanity can thrive.
Without these four things... it cannot.
It's as simple as that and, because it's simple, we should be raising the next generation to believe in and champion these values for a better world.
