Finn's father makes and mends stars. Finn is not allowed to help. His father likes things to be done a certain way and so, he insists, do the people down on the ground who look up at the stars every night. Finn's ideas are … different.

But when his father falls ill, Finn decides to step in and help. Firing up the star-making machine, he gets to work, filling the sky with glittering stars of every colour – an extraordinary array that stuns – and delights – the stargazers below…

But what will Finn's father say when he finds out?!

A joyful and fun-filled celebration of creativity, imagination and daring to be different – inspired by the classic tale The Sorcerer's Apprentice.

Perfect for fans of The Girl and the Dinosaur, The Moonlight Zoo and My Pet Star.
