When the Stars Came Home

Written by Brittany Luby

Illustrated by Natasha Donovan

Ages 4–7 Picture book

Ojiig feels lost after moving to the city, where he can no longer see the stars he loves. When sticker stars and a nightlight don’t help, his parents turn to a quilt stitched with family stories.

Why We Love It

Ojiig’s parents learn to look beyond a quick fix and listen to what he’s really missing. This Indigenous family’s stories and traditions offer a comforting reminder that a connection to home can travel with you.
