Sequel Book Underway

| Lila Strand

Now a sequel book is well underway.

What is it about? Many have asked me what happens to the little child that was left behind.
If you count the star children going home with the sun, you will see that one is missing. There is a little bit of a mauve hat disappearing over the hill on the left of the sun page.

That is where The Star Children ends, and where the new book begins.
A little lost star child! What will that one do? What happens?

Oh! What happened?
