Mabel loves stars. She counts five from her window and 37 from her backyard. But in this inspiring story for readers 4 to 7, her grandfather tells her that, as a child, he could see thousands. Could it be true? Mabel climbs a hill looking for more stars—only to discover that the glow from the nearby town makes them hard to see. What would it take for her neighbors to turn off their lights, just for one night, so that everyone could see the starlit sky? Made with watercolor and ink, Christine Davenier's luminous images evoke mid-20th-century illustrations.
