Publisher Description: <b><b>Inspiring, reassuring, and beautifully illustrated, this new story from the creator of the <i>New York Times</i> bestseller<i> Dreamers</i> is the perfect gift for every child. </b></b> <p/><b>A <i>New York Times</i> Best Children's Book of the Year</b> <p/>With the combination of powerful, spare language and sumptuous, complex imagery characteristic of her work, Yuyi Morales weaves the tale of a fawn making her way through a landscape that is dangerous, beautiful--and full of potential. A gentle voice urges her onward, to face her fears and challenge the obstacles that seek to hold her back. <p/><i>Child, you are awake!<br> You are alive!<br> You are a bright star, <br> Inside our hearts.<br> </i><br> With a voice full of calm, contemplative wisdom, readers are invited to listen and observe, to accept themselves--and to dare to shout! <p/>In a world full of uncertainty, <i>Bright Star</i> seeks to offer reassurance and courage. Yuyi Morales' first book since her <i>New York Times</i> bestseller <i>Dreamers</i> explores the borderlands--the plants, animals, and insects that make their home in the desert, and the people who live and travel through this unique and beautiful part of the world. <p/>Created with a combination of techniques including hand-embroidered lettering, painting, sketching, digital paintings with textures from photographs of the Sonoran Desert, this stunning book is full of beauty--from the handwoven blanket of the endpapers through the last inspiring spread of young families facing their future with determination and hope. <p/>A Spanish language edition, <i>Lucero</i>, is also available.<br> <p/><b>A <i>People</i> Magazine Best Kids Book of the Year </b><br><b>A <i>Washington Post</i> Best Children's Book of the Year</b><br> <b>An NPR 'Book We Love!' </b><br><b>A <i>Kirkus Reviews</i> Best Picture Book of the Year</b><br><b>A CSMCL Best Multicultural Children's Book of the Year</b><br><b>An Evanston Public Library Great Books for Kids pick!
