Go To

Original air date: 5/21/2001 (produced in 2000)

Dora and Boots want to make a wish on Little Star, the first star in the night sky. But suddenly, a speedy comet accidentally drops Little Star and she falls right to the earth! With the viewer's help, Dora and Boots set out to rescue the Little Star and bring her back home to her friend the Moon above the Tall Mountain, so that everyone can make their bedtime wishes!


Tropes:

  • Book Ends: The episode begins with Dora and Boots wanting to make a wish on Little Star, but they get interrupted by a comet who knocks her out of the sky. After Little Star is thrown back up to the moon, they proceed to make their wish again uninterrupted.
  • Make a Wish: Dora and Boots want to make a bedtime wish on Little Star.
  • Stock Audio Clip: During the montage of Dora's friends making their wishes, Tico's wish ("Quiero muchos nueces!") was recycled from "Wizzle Wishes".
  • Stock Footage: The Travel Song animations are the same from "Wizzle Wishes", with Little Star taking the Wizzle's place. The one difference is Dora and Boots jump only once at the end instead of multiple times.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: Swiper swipes Little Star.
