The main character was in the shape of a star. Could&#8217;ve been a ghost? It lived in a big lonely mansion. It discovers a paintbrush and a can of red paint. It begins painting red spirals. First on the walls, the curtains, the furniture and then on animals and trees. So it gives a deer longer spiral red horns and a bird longer spiral red feathers. It gives trees longer spiral red branches and flowers more petals. I was born in 1982 and I must&#8217;ve come across it when I was about 8-10 years old, at the time I lived in Mexico, but I believe it was in English.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I appreciate your help and hopefully this helps shed more light on the mystery.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I remember this book from when I was little.
