The complete story

Amara and the Pocket-Sized Moon

Amara had one last question before bed. ‘Where does the moon sleep?’ Dad opened the curtains. Outside, a little golden moon peeked between the rooftops.

A cloud pulled a soft grey blanket over the moon. ‘Oh,’ whispered Amara. ‘Did it go away?’ ‘Let’s look together,’ said Dad. They sat very still.

On the windowsill, a bowl of water held a tiny golden smile. ‘A pocket-sized moon!’ Amara giggled. The cloud drifted on. The big moon smiled back.

Amara tucked her toy rabbit into bed. Dad tucked in Amara. ‘Goodnight, big moon. Goodnight, little moon.’ The city grew quiet, and Amara closed her eyes.
