Winner of two National Indie Excellence Awards, recipient of multiple international children's book awards, and featuring a Kirkus Reviews "Get It" recommendation. What if the key to embracing who you are was hidden inside a glowing star? When Tala, a young Filipino American girl, discovers the traditional parol star lantern, her curiosity sparks a journey that brings three generations together to rediscover their roots, share family traditions, and shine brightly for all to see.
