A funny, beautifully illustrated young fiction series about
a star come to earth to cause trouble! Ideal for readers aged
6-9, the perfect next step for Isadora Moon fans or readers
of Sibéal Pounder and Laura Ellen Anderson.
Nora Nightsky is a star - literally. Her glamorous mum is the
North Star, and their dazzling family works hard, bringing to life
the Little Bear constellation and sprinkling magic down to earth
to grant human wishes.
But Nora is nowhere near as shiny as her perfect brother and sister.
She prefers a cosy black hole! She doesn't think much of wish-granting
either. Why can't humans solve their own problems!?
Then one day, a girl wishes on Nora for the first time, asking
for a pet. Rebelling against the rules, Nora sneaks down to Earth
with her best friend Leap, a cute hare constellation, to give the
girl a piece of her mind!
Nora agrees to help Olivia get a pet - through determination,
a cunning plan and PLENTY of mischief. But can she do it before
she runs out of stardust and is trapped on Earth forever...?
"A funny and imaginative story that will capture young
readers' hearts from the outset. complemented by Becka Moor's super
illustrations which capture Nora's mischievous character perfectly
and add an extra layer of magic to the book." – BookTrust
Books We Loved September 2025 pick
A charming new young fiction character for readers moving up
from Isadora Moon, brilliantly illustrated throughout in
black and white by Becka Moor.
Nora is a fun, bold, relatable character - and her adorable
sparkly hare sidekick, Leap, balances her edge perfectly!
Gently introduces facts and mythology about astronomy and constellations
in a playful and accessible way.
Lots of humour, mischief and antics with a beautiful friendship
at the heart.
