More About The Product
"Ray ("Christmas Farm") and Frazee ("The Boss Baby"), two big talents beating as one, assemble a cast of junior philosophers to help them muse on why stars--as celestial bodies, as shapes, as symbols, as talismans--hold so much meaning and mystery for us...while the prevailing tone is contemplative, it's more quirky than languid, capturing the delicious freedom of Ray's mind at play. Her prose wanders in the best sense of the word, and Frazee is happy to connect the dots and explore the detours, showing readers how stars can turn sticks into wands, cheer us up, or remind us, gently, of how much of the universe is beyond our grasp." --"Publishers Weekly", August 15, 2011, *STAR
