Hopper and Wilson Fetch a Star

(3) K-3 Hopper and Wilson's protagonists ride a paper airplane into space to find the perfect star to claim as their own private light source. When mouse Wilson gets lost, an extra-bright star helps him find his way back to elephant Hopper. Despite the elaborate staging and wholesomely trippy art, the message is sweetly simple: stars, like friends, belong "with each other."
