The Little Star Who Lost Her Way
Popular Stories Topics for You.
High above the sleeping village, a tiny star named Tira slipped from her place in the sky while chasing a passing comet, tumbling lower and lower until she landed softly in a meadow of tall grass. She looked up and could no longer find her family of stars twinkling above, and she began to cry small silver tears that sparkled on the grass. A gentle firefly noticed her glow and asked what was wrong. When Tira explained she was lost, the firefly gathered her firefly friends, and together they formed a glowing trail leading up the hillside to the tallest tree in the meadow. Tira climbed the branches with the fireflies lighting her way, higher and higher until she reached the very top, closer to the sky than she had been since she fell. With one last hop, helped by a warm gust of night wind, she floated gently back up into the dark sky and settled into her place among her sisters, who twinkled happily to welcome her home. From that night on, Tira always shone a little brighter than the rest, remembering the kindness of the fireflies below. And every child who looks up and sees a star blink twice is really watching Tira say goodnight.
