The main characters in Under a Lucky Star are Clara and Felicity – and each of their parents sees them as a true star when they’re born. It’s just that Clara is a hero who bravely makes her way about the world, while Felicity prefers not to. There’s nothing she feels like doing: she doesn‘t feel like learning to walk, to count, to listen to fairy tales. No wonder that, by the time she enters first grade, there’s not much she knows. There’s nothing star-like about her. But Felicity sets out to change.She changes her life and she becomes a star.
