Gazing up at the night sky can make anyone dream of the impossible. One little boy loves stars so much that he decides he must have one of his very own. He plans his mission carefully, waking up at sunrise to catch a star before it fades. But catching a shimmering point of light is much harder than it looks. He tries stretching as tall as he can, climbing the highest tree, and even using his trusty paper rocket ship. Nothing seems to work, and his perfect star remains stubbornly out of reach. Just as he is ready to give up on his dream entirely, he notices something beautiful washed up on the golden sand of the beach. This whimsical tale celebrates the power of persistence and proves that sometimes, what you are looking for turns up in the most unexpected places.
