Publisher's Synopsis
A little girl makes a wish to dance with the stars. A star hears her wish, and soon a tree is growing in the little girl’s garden. 100 years later, it towers up to the sky, and the little girl is now an old, old lady. One night, she’s kept awake by the same star, who remembers her wish and invites her to come and dance. Despite her aching back and trembling limbs, the old lady begins to climb the tree.
This lovely, lyrical tale, perfectly complemented by Alison Jay’s exquisite illustrations, addresses a difficult subject in a poetic and optimistic way, opening the door to further discussion.
