The Magic in Changing Your Stars by Leah Henderson
5.0
An endearing story written with a lot of adoration!
The story is told from the perspective of a little boy who has to change his Grandfather’s and his Family’s stars.
There’s just one catch - he has no idea how.
And that’s the story.
Along the way, he makes friends, finds his courage, learns to make decisions and and comes up with a brand new version of a coming-of-age story that’s bound to bring a broad smile to your face by the time you’re done wit it.
The story is full of nods to famous historical Black personalities, all of whom are mentioned in the afterword. Loved those references!
Lots here for all curious readers, with simple storytelling and (yet) lucid prose!
Delightful!!
