Once, on a shiny night, a little girl named Starling found a glittering crystal on the moon's gentle face.1 It whispered secrets only the wind could hear, and taught her how to talk to clouds.2
Every star had a word, like songs being sung. The bigger the star, the longer the word, but only Starling knew the secret melody.3
If you ever find a crystal in the night sky, close your eyes and listen. Maybe you, too, will learn the stars' secrets, just like Starling.4
