Lines from the book
The cushion was empty. The star was gone!... No star, no Star Time! And the thief is in this room.
Come cosy, in winter woollies and in character. Bring mittens in your colour! Someone is up to something…
Younger players can team up with a grown-up 'detective partner' who helps them read.
