Everyone knows that kids wish upon stars, but did you know that stars wish upon kids, too?

The real magic is in colored-pencil artwork by Idle, which has the visual drama and framing of classic animation, as well as a captivating celestial protagonist, who floats through the air with gymnastic nimbleness.”--Publishers Weekly
