Bernadine was sitting in the balcony with her mother. He said, “Mommy, the night sky is so beautiful. The stars are shining so brightly. I wish I could reach them!” Her mother smiled at her daughter and went to her room. Bernadine continued to gaze at the stars for long. An owl hooted from a nearby tree. Bernadine asked him, “Tell me how I can reach the stars, Mr Owl!” The owl replied, “Climb on my back. I’ll fly high and you can touch the stars.” Bernadine climbed up the tree and reached the owl. But the branch broke and Bernadine landed on the ground with a thud. Just then, Bernadine shouted, “Mr Owl, where are you?” Her mother came rushing to the room and said, “You must have been dreaming, my dear. There is no owl here.” Bernadine rubbed her eyes and went back to sleep, while her mother kissed her good night.
Good Night, Bernadine!
