Book Reviews: "Gr 3-6-Each story follows one of the Darlings on their travels as they discover how challenging life on a new planet can be and the importance of friendship and teamwork. VERDICT These novels are filled with magical, descriptive language and imagery; a fun combination for magical fantasy lovers-though the abundance of ultra-pink and sparkly design motifs may limit the audience. ~ School Library Journal: Christina Pesiri, Michael F. Stokes Elementary School Library, Island Trees-Levittown, NY. Charming Libby is a people pleaser who is slow at making decisions. She has to learn how to say no, stand up for herself, and feel more confident about her choices.

Meanwhile, the Star Darlings are dealing with their personal conflicts and issues. Libby's mission: Libby finds a flower in the Wish Caves, but her only clue as to whom it belongs is a ballot with two names on it. When Libby goes down to Wishworld, she identifies the wisher and exhausts herself, thinking she has to help grant all the wishes. Libby's friends come down to help her get back on track.
