Review

Star Child wants very badly to see Earth. His elders explain to him that he will have to be born a human and live as one so he can experience all earth has to offer. Clare Nivola has created this calm, quiet story through both beautiful, simple text and illustrations of quiet color that compliments the text. It is a book that explains the joy, heartbreak, excitement and challenges of living a life on earth as a human being. It is the complete package
