The Stars Will Still Shine by Cynthia Rylant and illustrated by Tiphanie Beeke is a picture book set to a poem.  It reassures readers that nothing will change in the new year: "The sky will still be there, the stars will still shine."  While the verse by Rylant is lovely, the illustrations really make this book special.  They capture the warmth, joy and vibrant color of life, showing us that there is a beauty in what will never change.

Share this one with a child in the new year.  It is a quiet story, perfect for bedtime snuggles and lap reading.
