The Little Star Named Twinkle

In a land not so far away, there lived a little star named Twinkle. Twinkle loved to shine brightly in the night sky, but she often felt distant from her friends on Earth.

One day, she decided to send a message with her twinkling light. "Hello, down there!" she sparkled. The children looked up and waved back, feeling connected to their distant friend.

Twinkle realized that even from far away, love and friendship can shine bright! So, whenever you see a star, remember, it might just be saying hello to you! ✨
