Este es un libro hermoso con un mensaje muy especial. Nunca debemos dejar que nadie apague nuestra luz ni olvidar brillar. Se recomienda fácilmente a todos, las ilustraciones también son increíbles. Perfecto para cualquier época del año, pero especialmente para Navidad.

"Twinkle, the Littlest Star" by Leslie Colburn is a darling little rhyme story for children. It follows Twinkle, a small star who wants to belong but is not really fitting in with other stars in the universe due to her small size. Its a story of looking for a place to belong where you are loved and needed, until she finally meets an angel who reveals her true purpose to her.
It's trully a lovely story and the illustrations are beautiful.

Such a precious story with gorgeous illustrations! I would absolutely recommend this! Truly show no matter how small you are you can do big things

This is a beautiful book with such a special message. We should never let anyone dim our light or forget to shine. Easily recommended to all, the illustrations are incredible as well. Perfect for anytime of the year, but especially at Christmas. Absolutely lovely!

Oh this is just absolutely adorable. The artwork is beautiful, the characters are so cute and it has so many great messages to teach such as self love and kindness

In this heartwarming Christmas tale, Twinkle, the smallest star, feels out of place among the other stars who say she’s too tiny to shine. But when an angel appears, Twinkle learns her purpose and lights the way to a miraculous birth, proving even the littlest stars can shine the brightest.

This charming children’s book beautifully conveys messages of self-worth, purpose, and kindness. The story encourages young readers to embrace their uniqueness and reminds them that even the smallest among us can make a big difference. With its lovely illustrations and heartfelt message, this book is perfect for bedtime reading, especially as the holiday season approaches.

Thank you to Leslie Colburn, the publisher, and Netgalley for the Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

Wow, not what I expected at all! This has got to be the most beatiful children's board book I have ever read.

The beginning was giving The Ugly Duckling vibes, but the plot twist exceeded expectations. The blurb had me thinking that this was going to be a Christian book with a niche audience but it is written so well that it would appeal to families of all faiths, particularly Jewish, Christian, and Muslim families just because of the specifi spiritual connotations.

Wonderfully illustrated, beautiful rhymes, and a unique perspective. This is being bought in bulk and gifted to all my friends and family with toddlers. It's the ideal Christmas present and a story to be enjoyed over and over.

This is such a sweet book. It proves that no matter how small you are or may feel, God has a purpose and plan for us. With a tiny but mighty toddler myself I was extra touched. The illustrations are also very pretty!

Cute! I didn't expect this book's plot/ending, but it was still adorable! This book accurately shows how, even if you're smaller than everyone else, you can still find your purpose in life and be important with your own unique strengths. Twinkle's journey to discover this for herself will inspire so many little ones and empower them with the belief in themselves that is so, so important. The plot of Twinkle's story was clearly defined and easy-to-follow. Lastly, the illustrations were utterly beautiful! Especially the outer space scenes. The illustrator knows just how to work with colors, gradients, and light to breathe life into the words on a page to make a stellar story.
Bravo!

I really liked this book, and I appreciate NetGalley giving me the opportunity to read and review it.

I read this to my 5-month-old. She was instantly intrigued by the illustrations. I appreciate the diversity included in the illustrations, too, as it helps to enforce the fact that people come in all shapes and sizes.

The story itself was a simple one, but I love how it blended a nursery rhyme that I know and sing often with the nativity story. It blended secular and non-secular without being overbearing. It also emphasized the fact that the little star (and, therefore the little child that is reading the story) is important no matter what anyone else says. The message of self-worth intertwines itself wonderfully.

Ultimately, the book hits three important categories: familiarity, values, and self-confidence. Though it falls into the category of ‘seasonal,’ I believe the story is unique enough that it can be frequently reread. I can see this book being very popular in church nurseries, children’s ministries, and in Christian/Catholic schools.

Wow! What a beautiful little book with the sweetest sentiment. Rarely do we read new children’s books about Christmas and Jesuses birth that are destined to become a classic, but Twinkle, the Littlest Star is just such a book. I plan to buy it for all the kiddos in my life this holiday season.

Twinkle, the Littlest Star

ARC Review - Publication Date November 12, 2024

A new take to the known song Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. Twinkle has a dim light and cannot find her place amongst the other stars. She travels trying to find the best way to shine, when an angel comes to her and shows her how to shine her light the brightest. A new way to tell the Christmas story that was beautiful to read. The illustrations were amazing pieces of artwork. This book would make a great gift for anyone for the holidays, and the story would be wonderful to share.

My child's favorite part of the book was how pretty the pictures were.

I love this book so much. As a mom to three young kids, I immediately see this as a bedtime story anytime of year, but especially during the Christmas season. Even without the message of the birth of Christ, it has a great and applicable meaning. The writing is wonderful and age appropriate and the illustrations are beautiful. I will definitely be buying this for my kids when it releases!

What a sweet children’s book about living for your purpose and being different is okay. This will work its way into the bedtime rotation as we near the holiday season. Beautiful illustrations.

This is the perfect bedtime story! It is a new perspective on the birth story of Jesus, with vibes of the classic lullaby Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star! little star Twinkle isn’t as big or bright as the other stars. She searches for a way to shine bright. She gets discouraged, it she doesn’t give up and ends up with a really special job. This book not only told a wonderful story, but the illustrations were beautiful! Must read for bedtime!

**I was fortunate enough to read an ARC of this book, thanks to NetGalley.**

This is such a beautiful children's book that I believe really shares how we're all created differently and for a unique purpose. Twinkle, the littlest star had such a wonderful job waiting for her when the time was right. While other stars didn't accept her or really welcome her, she didn't cause a fuss or became too discouraged, but she was motivated to keep looking. This sends the message that it's important to keep going, no matter life's difficulties or situations and that The Creator has a purpose for everyone. How blessed to know a cute backstory to the well known biblical star!

We read this one tonight and loved it! Such a cute story for little to hear about purpose and that they are worthy! We will read again

Thanks for the ARC Netgalley

I thoroughly enjoyed this sweet read! I loved the rhyming tempo, the beautiful illustrations, and the heartwarming story. Twinkle, the Littlest Star shows how God can use anyone for his purposes. It also shows how his plans can give us confidence in ourselves! Finally, I adored that this children's book included the Christmas story and pointed back to Jesus' birth!

I loved the powerful imagery in this book! It had a great message, and was visually engaging, with great underlying themes of perseverance, wonder and amazement.
