You are also a star There are so many stars in the sky. They are different colors, but they are all shining. The other stars look at you and think just the same! You are also a star, the darker the night, the more dazzling you. Don’t be afraid your light is not bright enough. Your light is enough to light a thousand hearts. 27

Someone is lighting a fire for you You keep frying on it because you are afraid you will not be able to feed the crowd today. But down here, where you know or do not know. Someone is breathing fire for you.

Little raccoon exchanged for Crown Prince The raccoon found the extra large leaves He was ready to change for the crown prince to go to school and explore the wide world. He thought that he can do what the leopard cat do.(change to people by leaves) SHH... Don't take off his leaves yet, neither let him look in the mirror. Look, didn't he do a good job?

Blue whale and brontosaurus The great blue whale is used to this depth. Long, long ago, he knew a brontosaurus. However, it never occurred to him that the brontosaurus would secretly practice breathing for an hour in order to visit him. The brontosaurus also secretly stuck a few small shells on his body In this way, perhaps a little more resonance! (they are naive) Don’t worry about what your ocean floor looks like, because a brontosaurus is on his way.
