What is The star that fell about?

One night, a bright star tumbles from the sky and lands in the woodland. Fox discovers it and carries it home, where its gentle light keeps her cubs safe in the dark. Soon, other animals borrow the star for their own needs, using its glow to make the night less frightening and more useful. But as the star’s light fades, the animals realise it cannot stay on Earth forever. Together, they must find a way to return their precious visitor to the sky.
