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…?
