This is a beautiful rendition of the beloved children’s song “Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star” illustrated by Caldecott Medal winner Jerry Pinkney. In this story, a curious chipmunk leaves her nest to explore the world around her. Along the way, she discovers a star-like image in a twirling white seed pod, the blossoms of a tree, a spider's web, and the glow of fireflies. As the day closes the chipmunk climbs into a robin’s nest and later into a sail boat in a dreamlike quest to reach the stars. Eventually she returns to her home on the back of a white swan.
