It starts with the famous song “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.” One element of poetry that this book has is narrative. This book tells a story about a girl who goes into the sky with the star. This is also a Lyric poem because it can be sung with the song “Twinkle, Twinkle…” I thought this book was delightful. The pictures are rich with night time colors. I thought it was witty how the words all fit to the song “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star…” I also like how it shows the planets. Before reading this book, sing the song Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. As your reading you can have the children point to the star on the page. This book would go good with the space theme or a night time theme. Cute book, but each page is a little long for the very young and very short attention spans of the under three set. Personally, I thought the story was cute and my two year - despite turning the page early on almost every page - did ask for it to be read several times. The drawings were very sweet. The length, however, is why I only gave it 4 stars. I simply adore this book! I didn't realize there were so many verses to this song, but perhaps the author added some of her own verses? Perhaps. Anyways, the pictures are beautiful, full of wonder and delight - just like the song. no reviews | add a review

I like this story because the children already know the basic and can sing the song or read aloud with me. Also because it is a board book my smaller toddlers can have a chance to hold it and look it over.
Children can sing the song as you read the story, and there are many art projects that can be made with stars such as sand art. colored sand and glue with a basic star shape. This is a good story if you are teaching shapes also.
