My toddler grandchildren enjoyed this book and were retelling it to each other, flipping through the boardbook pages.

Little Miss enjoys this one. I'm grateful it's short. Not that it's bad, it's just pretty bland. I think the draw is the glow-in-the-dark stars peeping thru cut-outs in the pages. They disappear as you turn the pages and count down.

William got this as a gift from my mother. We read it at bed time sometimes; when Natalie joins us at bed time in William's room she often picks this book for us to read together because she likes to touch the stars. Its a cute counting book, but nothing exceptional.

[Amy]

What a sweet bedtime book. Toddlers will want to touch the stars.

[Angela]

this is a nice short bedtime read. the glow in the dark stars are cute but I can't read with the lights off. :)

[Rachel]

Doesn't flow smoothly to read. Pages stick together on the stars.

[Aysheh M]

It was an okay book, but the book did not flow throughly.

[Dolly]

This is a sweet, counting book with a rhyming narrative and adorably cartoonish, colorful illustrations. It would be great to read aloud with young children at bedtime.

[Jessica]

A goodnight book where sheep make wishes. The plastic yellow stars are attached to different pages and slowly disappear one by one when you turn the pages.

[Emily]

Eh. Seems like the wishes are just there to rhyme.
