The Missing Star

By Lou Basenese

The Missing Star

Christmas is coming, and the world is sparkling with lights, music, and holiday cheer. But something important is missing.

High above the night sky, one bright star that has always shined over the Christmas season suddenly disappears.

When Rebel and Rooster discover that the beloved star is gone, they set out on a journey to find it. Along the way, they are joined by friends who bring their own gifts, talents, and ideas to the adventure.

As they search through snowy places, quiet moments, and twinkling Christmas scenes, Rebel and Rooster begin to learn that the greatest treasures are not always the easiest to see. Sometimes the brightest light comes from kindness. Sometimes it comes from friendship. And sometimes it shines from a place deep within the heart.

Filled with warmth, wonder, laughter, and gentle lessons, The Missing Star is a Christmas story that celebrates hope, faith, perseverance, and the joy of helping others.

Perfect for children ages 3-8, this beautifully illustrated adventure encourages young readers to believe that even small acts of kindness can make a big difference, discover the value of friendship and teamwork, find hope when things seem lost, and celebrate the true spirit of Christmas.

Part of the Rebel & The Rooster(TM) Christmas Series, The Missing Star continues the adventures of two unforgettable friends whose journeys remind readers that courage, compassion, and faith can help light the way through any season.

Join Rebel and Rooster as they discover that sometimes the light we are searching for has been guiding us all along.
