In the pages of Jessie Sima’s adorable new picture book, you will find the brightest rainbows, the best constellations and the sweetest little winged horse ever imagined. Her name is Nimbus and the sky is her playground. Usually, she loves spending her days sculpting clouds and her nights making pictures from the stars, but having adventures on her own can be lonely.

When Nimbus tries wishing on a falling star for someone to play with, the star disappears before she can finish her wish and she flies down to earth to find it. There she is greeted by a whole host of willing helpers on her search, one of whom is a not-quite-Narwhal called Kelp. Searching with friends is fun but if they don’t find the star, will our little Pegasus have to return to the sky all alone?

Full of bright illustrations, Perfectly Pegasus will appeal to all ages, but the story is ideal for ages 2+.
