My review:
Inspired by Loren Eiseley’s “The Starfish Story”, Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Sea Star presents a cheerful and heartwarming sequel to The Magic Sea Turtle. Narrated in rhymes, this beautifully illustrated story showcases the joy and excitement of performing an act of kindness through teamwork.
Seeing a group of sea stars stranded on land and stuck in the kelp, Max and Myrtle embark on an unprecedented rescue mission, enlisting the help of their ocean friends both flying up in the sky and swimming in the sea. Everyone is mobilized to offer their support, from transferring every single sea star back to safety to sending cheers to all the contributors. No one takes a break until the mission is fully accomplished.
Featuring all adorable and compassionate sea creatures from The Magic Sea Turtle, this book once again manifests the magical power of friendship, collaboration and kindness, encouraging young readers to work as a team to achieve a common goal, such as offering help to those in need. By confirming that everyone can make a difference in small ways, it prompts all nature lovers to take action and play a positive part in promoting ocean conservation.
Besides its captivating narrative and uplifting messages, the book also shines in its amazing artwork, which charms all readers with intense colors, cute characters, and stunning scenery. The evocative, action-packed images correspond nicely to the main theme by amplifying the beauty of synergy as well as the enjoyment of being helpful.
Delightful and meaningful, Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Sea Star constitutes a valuable addition to the book collection of budding changemakers and environmental enthusiasts.
