Asha, a sharp-witted idealist, makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic force, a little ball of boundless energy called Star. Together, Asha and Star confront a most formidable foe the ruler of Rosas, King Magnifico to save her community and prove that when the will of one courageous human connects with the magic of the stars, wondrous things can happen.

"Once there was a girl named Kiki, who found a fish on the asphalt. The fish was very hot and very dry. But when Kiki put it in the bathtub, it started swimming, and growing, and speaking. 'I want to grant you a wish for saving me,' it said. Alas, this fish was only a fish of small wishes, and Kiki's wish was too big--unless there was a way for both their dreams to come true"-- Provided by publisher.
