~The Star Who Had No Twinkle~

Once upon a time there lived a little star called Sparkie. It was Christmas time and he decided to have a party. He called up his best friend, Winkie, to help him arrange everything. Winkie was happy to and came straight over.

They decorated the room, and baked cakes and puddings and decided on presents for everyone (except each other, ofcourse). Sparkie asked Winkie, "What do you want for Christmas?"
And Winkie replied, "I only wish I could twinkle like everyone else. I always get teased and the only thing I have ever wanted is to shine!".

While Winkie was walking home after being at Sparkie's house, he saw many of the other stars who yelled out mean names to him. He was so sad that he ran home as fast as he could crying all the way. If only he could twinkle.

Meanwhile, Sparkie was thinking all night about Winkie and what he would give him as a present. After a lot of thought, he finally decided to give Winkie, his shine. After all Winkie was his best friend and would do anything for him. So that night Sparkie took all his twinkles off and packed them in a box, wrapped it and tied a pretty red bow on the top.

At the Christmas party the next day, everyone was curious as to where Sparkies twinkle was. They said, "Have you caught winkie-itis?",
but Sparkie just replies, "I have no twinkle for a special reason". Everyone had a great time that night and after all the guests had left, Winkie and Sparkie exchanged gifts. "Oh thankyou for this tie!", said Sparkie, "It is great!". Then he gave Winkie his gift.

As Winkie opened it he gave a yell of excitement, "Thankyou so much! You are truly the greatest friend anyone could have!!". That night Sparkie felt very sad, but when he thought of his friend's happiness, he ignored his feelings. Suddenly, from nowhere, appeared a shiny star, dressed in white. To Sparkie, she said, "You have done a great deed! And for your love and kindness, I shall give you a new twinkle".

Happy The next morning Winkie came over and was so suprised, and happy! Now they were both the same and Winkie would never get teased again. Even to this day, Sparkie and Winkie are best friends and if you look into the night sky, the two brightest stars are the very best friends in the world!
