Just beautiful January 6, 2009
Mr. S. Lawson (Bucks, UK)
This is a beatiful book that my 19 month old loves. For her, she loves the artwork with the big splashes of colour in which the stars of the title stand out easily.
Us parents love reading her the story since it moves along at an easy pace but is engaging enough to keep the little one interested. She never lets us go without at least 3 readings of it!
Highly recommended. I'll be looking to get the authors other books soon.
Wonderful gift that gives back :) December 29, 2008
Terri Tomassi (Oxfordshire, UK)
This was a Christmas present for my son and the set is something we are enjoying together! The book is adorable and fits well under the covers to be read by the light of the flash light that is included! Plus the poster has a star chart on one side and the front cover on the other - PLUS ..glow in the dark stars! Makes for a great adventure in collecting your own stars together!
What a great surprize!
Simple and lovely September 1, 2008

There's something very soothing and calming about this book, which makes it perfect for bedtime. The story is simple, the illustrations are beautiful, and we all feel good when we read it. My two-year-old son absolutely loves it, and I do too.
We all Love it! August 23, 2008

I bought this book & cd for my daughter last year, and still listens to it every night since then! Mum, dad and daughter all love this wonderful story.
We will be buying lost & found as well as way back home as I found out they are also out in book & cd.
We are big fans and hope Oliver Jeffers keeps writting wonderful books like this.
fly me to the moon January 25, 2008

amongst one of the most beautiful contemporary children books i have read.
it is the innocent and very basic style in which children are encouraged to dream and reach out for the impossible and get motivated to fuel their imagination with creative thinking and alternative solutions to seemingly unachievable tasks. i consider it the very skill of a good children book to not mock or burst a bubble but offer a beautiful alternative to the unachievable. Oliver Jeffers always has a nice twist in his books and heartbreaking illustrations of the yearnings and hopes of his characters.
every child needs to read or be read a book like this. the only equivalent
i know is a book about a bear who wants to reach the moon. a book that is
decades old and whose title i cant currently recall- but it still sits in a box in the house i grew up in surrounded by other books that shaped the very me- why i think a good choice of book for your children is invaluable- and i believe this one is a very good choice that will hopefully get passed on to as many generations possible.
enjoy.
