Rezensionen
A cheery, warm-hearted tale, beautifully told', Imogen Carter, The Guardian

'An exceedingly enchanting story that encapsulates both the awe and wonder of the stars, the night sky and of the unique bond between siblings ... Incandescently, radiantly, resplendently brilliant! It's a dazzling delight that will truly shine on your bookshelf', Mr E, The Reader Teacher

'Very special ... a perfect bedtime tale', Read It, Daddy!, Blogger

'A warm, comforting read. Perfect for bedtime', Emma Perry, Awfully Big Reviews

'Full of warmth, this is a lovely story of siblings, friendship and doing what's right that is perfect for sharing just before sleep but too enjoyable to be restricted to bedtime reading only', Jillrbennett, Red Reading Hub

'The children are innocent believers who know that anything is possible. The big sister is steadfast and immensely supportive of her little brother, narrating thetale with great pride and compassion. 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. Many of the people they encounter are brown skinned; the siblings are shown as pale-skinned and dark-haired. Tender and loving', Kirkus Reviews
