Shine Like the Stars cover

You are part of this earth. You grow like the seed. You shine like the stars. Reconnect with the natural world with illustrations from British Book Award and Waterstones Children’s Book Prize-winning Harry Woodgate. We are all connected to the natural world, and it is connected to us. And just as the stars shine brightly in the night sky, so can you. Told from the point of view of the natural world, this exquisite and thought-provoking story from children's author Anna Wilson invites us to connect with the world around us and achieve our potential.
