Starry Starry Night

The adventures of two unlikely friends.

Big takes Small into the garden one evening to look at the stars, which he thinks are beautiful and magical. Small agrees at first, but after a minute or two he does not find watching stars terribly exciting. Big decides to count the stars, because he thinks that sounds like fun.

Small agrees reluctantly to help him, but he keeps falling asleep and losing track of what number they are on. Big gets so frustrated at having to keep going back to one that he decides never to look at another star again, let alone count them.

But then the sky fills up with shooting stars and a breathtaking meteor shower. Both Big and Small are amazed by the sight. Small can see that stars can be totally not boring and Big realises that you do not need to count the stars to see just how brilliant they are.
