Clementine has just been born and doesn't know what or who she is. Is she a star? After all, she has light just like them. 
Clementine doesn't know what animal she is, she was just born and there is no one like her around. She meets Cricket and Moth, who explain that she is an insect, but they don't remember which one. She thinks she might be a star because she has light, like the ones they see in the sky.
That very same night, a little girl leaves her house to chase the small lights that illuminate the forest. They will meet and become friends. Will the girl be able to help Clementine understand who she is?

Clementine wakes up alone in the forest with no one to teach her about what she is. After many guesses and a near miss with a bat, a little girl finds Clementine and helps her get to others like her. The illustrations were rich and inviting. The story reminds me a bit of Disney’s The Princess and the Frog when the glowbug loves the moon. The story is straightforward but leaves room to feel like Clementine and the girl will meet again and her journey has just begun. I do wish there was a bit more plot because nowhere does it have anything explain to Clementine what she is which was her central question. Overall, young children will be drawn in by the illustrations and the sweetness of the plot while older children might need a bit more depth to consider a reread.
