One Round Moon and a Star for Me by Ingrid Mennen
In this story, a young African boy watches a shooting star falling for his Mama's new baby. The whole village comes together to provide gifts for mother and child. But when he sees his papa smiling at the baby's tiny hands, his heart grows dark, like a night with no moon. At last he asks, 'Papa, are you really my Papa too?'
