What is Draw me a star about?

An artist is asked to draw a star, and from that single picture an extraordinary world begins to grow. The star asks for a sun, the sun asks for a tree, and soon the artist is creating flowers, birds, rainbows and more. With every new drawing, the universe becomes brighter and more wondrous. As the artist travels through his own creation, Eric Carle celebrates imagination, creativity and the magical way one small idea can lead to endless possibilities.
