Whiskers and the Firefly

In a cozy little town, where the stars twinkled like tiny diamonds, there lived a curious cat named Whiskers. One night, as Whiskers strolled through the garden, he spotted a glimmering light. “What could it be?” he wondered, his eyes wide with excitement.

With a soft pitter-patter, he followed the glimmer until he found a firefly dancing in the air! “Hello, little friend!” Whiskers purred. The firefly smiled and said, “I light up the night to show you the magic around!”

And from that day on, Whiskers learned that even the smallest glimmer can bring the biggest joy!
