Children will love entering Din’s colorful world, which is full of unique characters on every page, from Din and the stars themselves to people and animals who work and live side by side. This fun picture book can open up conversations about sadness and feelings, and about helping friends and loved ones who might be sad themselves. Din has dark brown skin and curly hair.
