The old woman had only one wish: to celebrate a real Christmas, with a tree and presents and candles and food. Just once.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHigh up in the heavens, Star Mother’s youngest child makes a wish, too. “Mother!” he wails, “just once I want to celebrate Christmas like they do down there!” So Star Mother sends him to earth, where he finds a hut and knocks on the door . . .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this original, heartwarming fable, Louise Moeri tells the story of an unlikely friendship and how it made two Christmas wishes come true.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"In three words I can state clearly why I wanted to be a part of the children's book field: Trina Schart Hyman.  In 1975, the year I graduated from college, I won a literary prize for my own writing and with the money I bought books.  One book in particular altered the course of my life: STAR MOTHER'S YOUNGEST CHILD.  Both the story and Trina's heartfelt illustrations propelled me to be a part of the wondrous world of children's books.  I still have my first edition copy, a bit tattered from frequent readings and poring over Trina's artwork.  Whenever I needed encouragement this book, with all its magic, gave me that artistic boost.\"  Olivier Dunrea, author.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43137884717117,"sku":"9780618615094","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/0838\/9949\/files\/9780618615094_p0.jpg?v=1777377824","url":"https:\/\/www.tatteredcover.com\/products\/9780618615094","provider":"Tattered Cover","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
