Ollie the Owl and the Lost Star

Ollie the Owl loved the quiet part of night — the moment when the world felt soft and sleepy.

One evening, Ollie noticed something was missing. A tiny star that always twinkled above the old pine tree had vanished.

Instead of worrying, Ollie took a slow, deep breath. “We'll find it gently,” he whispered.

With a lantern made of moonlight, Ollie glided from branch to branch. He listened for the smallest sparkle… and at last, he heard it — a little ting! beneath a leaf.

The star had slipped into a cozy nest of moss. Ollie tucked it safely in his feathers and carried it back to the sky.

When the star returned to its place, it winked at Ollie like a thankful friend.

“Goodnight,” said Ollie. “Shine softly.”
