Charlie and his best friend Blue have a secret.
Mum thinks they stay tucked snugly in bed every night. She doesn’t know about Larry the Lamp Post, who takes them on a galactic adventure to explore the skies after dark.
Each evening the friends gallop through the night sky finding out about a different constellation, leaving trail of light from Larry the Lamp Post’s magical glow.
Charlie can’t believe his luck. He has always loved the stars. Now he wonders if perhaps a little stardust landed on his head.
Join him and his friends on this magical adventure and see where it takes you!
