He says that it is his job to light the stars. Non of the people believe him except for one boy. The boy follows and trusts the stranger. Because of the boy's faith in him, the star lighter takes the boy with him to light the stars forever. This story shows that when people have faith in others, even when no one else does, they will be rewarded. ( ) This book was extremely interesting to me. I would love to read this to students, I think it would really help kids use their imagination. John Howe's illustrations are also very beautiful, I was entranced by the detailed artworks, especially of the character's facial expressions. A stranger with no money and no belongings comes to a small town and asks money to polish the starts. The townspeople immediately laugh at him and call him a fool, but a young, lonely boy is curious about his apparent job. The stranger climbs a large latter all the way to the moon and starts and begins to light them up. The young boy follows him up the latter and they both fly off in the distance on a star. This is a tale about a man whose job it is to illuminate the heavens. He roams the lonely, windy countryside carrying a ladder. When he passes through one particular village, he runs into an orphan boy, who is fascinated by what he does and then decides to follows, him. Together, they travel throughout the countryside polishing the stars. But, one day some woodcutters came along and cut down the ladder, the man and the boy remain in the heavens, their only visible legacy a shooting star. The tale represents modern fantasy at its best! The story is easily unfolded through the beautiful artwork. Unlike the traditional bright colors used in children books the author use dark earth tones to set the mood. I would recommend for ages 6 and up. For this particularly book, I think it would be a good ideal for teachers to read aloud and have their class create an alternate ending. Also, it’s a good book to bring for show n tells to get away from the traditional children books. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
