High in the night sky, a small star named Violet watches as wishers gaze at the biggest and brightest stars. Night after night, she wonders why no one ever chooses her. As doubt begins to dim her glow, Violet discovers that being chosen isn’t about being the biggest or most popular—it’s about bravely choosing yourself and sharing who you are in your own way. And that can change the sky.
A heartfelt picture book for ages 4–9 about self-esteem, emotions, and finding confidence in your own unique light. Perfect for bedtime, classroom read-alouds, and conversations nurturing social-emotional growth.
Add to Cart today and Violet's story part of your together time.
