Description
A beautiful picture book of cosmic dimensions about the tranquillity and happiness that come from no longer feeling alone, by Korean singer-songwriter Lee Juck and award-winning illustrator Lee Jinhee.
A long, long time ago, in a far, far corner of the universe, there lived a lonely little star. One day, a comet appears—is this finally the star’s chance to make a friend?
Inspired by Halley’s Comet, Comet & Star is a picture book written by Korean singer-songwriter Lee Juck and illustrated by acclaimed artist Lee Jinhee. It is about the moments of connection—however brief or rare—that give us the joy and hope to shine bright across the vast universe.
