About this listen

Meet Andrew: A curious boy who loves the night sky more than anything. One windy, whooshy night, a piece of the cosmos decides to visit! It lands with a soft plink in Andrew's backyard a perfect, shining glass bauble, humming softly and full of dancing starlight. He names his new, magical secret Twinkle. Keeping a star hidden is harder than Andrew thinks! Twinkle lights up his bedroom like midday, confuses the school goldfish, and accidentally causes The Great Power Outage! With the help of his wise Granny Dot and a grumpy attic squirrel named Mr. Fizz, Andrew must embark on a gentle adventure up to Wishing Hill. But when Twinkle's light starts to fade, Andrew learns the most important lesson of all: Magic, happiness, and light are never meant to be hidden in a jar. They are meant to be shared! A warm, luminous tale about wonder, responsibility, and how even the smallest light can brighten the whole world.
