Overview

Kissed by the Stars is a heartfelt and hopeful story about unity, empathy, and the power of community. After leaving Cuba in the middle of the night with her mother in search of a new beginning, young Marta arrives in a new country that feels overwhelming and unfamiliar. At school, everything is different-the language, the customs, and even the way she sees herself. Quiet and unsure, Marta struggles to find where she belongs. Little by little, a circle of kind Latina classmates notices her. Through small acts of friendship, shared traditions, and genuine compassion, they help Marta feel seen and welcomed. Together, the girls discover that community can be built through kindness, understanding, and the courage to reach out to someone who feels alone. As Marta begins to open her heart, she learns that the brightest stars are not found in the night sky, but in the people who lift us up and stand beside us during new beginnings. Kissed by the Stars gently teaches children the importance of empathy, inclusion, and cultural pride, showing that even at a young age, we all have the power to make a meaningful difference.
