/Zuno's Wish to the Stars
Background for Zuno's Wish to the Stars
One evening, just after the sun had yawned and gone to bed, Zuno stood on his balcony, staring at the sky. He loved stars. Not just the twinkly ones up high, but the ones in his dreams too. Suddenly, a soft pop! came from behind the clouds. A shiny balloon floated down, glowing like moonlight. It wasn’t tied to anything—it floated gently, softly, until it landed right in Zuno’s hands. Tied to the balloon was a tiny note that said: “Dear Zuno, hold tight and wish bright.” Zuno blinked. “Wish… bright?” he whispered. So he closed his eyes and wished: “I wish I could visit a star!” WHOOSH! The balloon lifted him gently into the air—past rooftops, past clouds, past airplanes with sleepy passengers—and up into the starlit sky. He landed softly on a cozy little star named Glimma, who spoke in giggles and gave him hot chocolate made of sparkling dust. “You’re our first Earth guest!” said Glimma. “Would you like to play Moon Hop?” They bounced from star to star, played hide-and-seek behind planets, and made giggly snow angels in space dust. But soon, the stars began to whisper: “Zuno… Zuno… it’s almost morning…” The balloon appeared again. Zuno hugged Glimma and whispered, “Thank you for the sparkly night.” Back in bed, he woke up with a glowing speck of space dust on his pillow and a smile as bright as the moon.
