When Mary’s little lamb, Libby, wishes upon a shooting star, a friend inspires her to go after her dream of traveling into outer space.
Libby follows Mary to school and, despite the children laughing at her for being different, she doesn't give up. She learns how to build a rocket ship and travel into outer space. When she catches a shooting star, she discovers it is engraved with all the wishes that were ever wished upon it. She vows to help those wishes come true and returns to Earth to establish the Shooting Star Wish Foundation.
Colorful paper-cut llustrations bring Libby's outer space adventure to life, making STEM subjects exciting and teaching children how kindness and curiosity can break down stereotypes, promote inclusion, and help them achieve their dreams.
