But this star encourages kindness and needs to shine, so it comes out from the shadows. At first the glow from the star starts to fade, and the girl worries--maybe she's not a very good starkeeper. Then a chance gesture of kindness seems to brighten the star, and soon this kindness leads to a chain of good works that light up the once-dreary town. <p/>The art of the book follows the star's journey and lights up more and more with each act of kindness.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Illustrations elevate this<b> tale of hope and empowerment</b>." --<i>Kirkus Reviews <p/></i>"An overall uplifting story that<b> shows the effect caring, sharing, and connection</b> can have on individuals and a community." --<i>Booklist</i> <p/>"<b>Fresh with unexpected twists</b>. . . .
