  This is a collection of more than 250 wishes to make on a falling star. The authors claim that we have forgotten how to wish. We may make wishes on birthdays or on holidays, but adulthood steals our grand dreams of a better world. An excess of reason tempers our thoughts and deeds. Shoooting stars are there to help us. They look no bigger than our fingertips, yet their power is so great. Whatever we wish the moment we see them fall will surely come to pass. This book is filled with wishes gathered from school children across Germany and is intended to inspire everyone to wish on a star.
