The Silver Star

Once upon a time there was a little boy who gazed upon the stars. He often thought he could hold one of the stars. He knew the stars brightened his night. He wanted one to brighten his day.

One night, he was looking into the sky and saw one silver star coming closer to him. Before he knew it, it was glistening in his hands. He knew then that wishing very hard makes everything possible. He lay down in the grass and put the star next to him and fell asleep.

In the morning, he picked up his star and it was still shining. He carried the star until he was a very old man.
