This story follows Nova, a purple alien who observes the vibrant traditions of Earth from afar, feeling a deep sense of isolation until a single point of light serves as an invitation to connect. It is a gentle exploration of the courage it takes to step into the unknown to find belonging. Ideal for children ages 3 to 7, this book provides a comforting metaphorical framework for discussing social anxiety, the beauty of sharing traditions, and the universal desire to be seen and included.
