The Tiny Star Who Found Her Shine

by Jennifer Etinosa

Where was her shine? Sia, a tiny star, wants to see her own glow—and she has promised to bring it home. Then she spots five golden smudges on a nearby cloud, one shorter than the others. Could they be footprints? Hoping they will lead her to a clue, Sia follows their curious trail toward brighter stars.

But the dazzling light hides the gold, and rolling cloud folds scatter the trail. With her promise still on her mind, Sia must decide whether to give up or look more closely. What is making the golden patches appear—and could the smallest clue help Sia find what she is searching for?

Gentle humor, a skyward mystery, and a thoughtful little hero make this picture book a cozy read-aloud for preschoolers. Sia’s adventure invites young readers to look closely, stay curious, and discover that a quiet glow can matter just as much as a dazzling one.
