Mopsy's cozy little kitchen smelled sweetly of cinnamon and dough.

Mopsy the tiny mouse loved to bake delicious, sparkly cookies. It was her favorite thing to do.

Mopsy: “Time for starlight cookies!”

She scampered to her special, shimmering starlight jar.

Mopsy: “Oh no! Jar empty!”

Outside her window, the night sky was completely covered in thick, puffy clouds.

Mopsy: “No stars tonight!”

Her secret cookie recipe truly needed fresh, glowing starlight. It was the special ingredient.

Mopsy: “What will I do?”

She pressed her little nose against the cold windowpane.

Mopsy: “Still cloudy! Humph!”

Mopsy: “I need help.”

She scurried quickly to the base of the big, old oak tree.

Perched sleepily high above was Professor Hoot.

Mopsy: “Professor Hoot! Help!”

Professor Hoot blinked his big, round eyes slowly, almost asleep.

Professor Hoot: “Whooo's calling, dear?”

Mopsy: “Jar empty. No stars!”

Professor Hoot: “Stars hide sometimes.”

Professor Hoot: “Look for sparkle-dew.”

Mopsy scampered excitedly to the moonlit garden path.

The whole garden sparkled with tiny, glistening dewdrops everywhere.

She found many shimmering, beautiful dewdrops.

Mopsy: “Perfect! Like tiny stars!”

Mopsy carefully filled her little jar to the brim.

Back in her warm kitchen, Mopsy mixed the sweet dough.

She baked the most beautiful, sparkly starlight cookies.

Mopsy: “Sparkle-dew cookies are yummy!”

She shared a warm, sparkly cookie with Professor Hoot.

Professor Hoot: “Hoo-hoo! Delicious!”

Mopsy curled up in her warm, soft bed, feeling happy and sleepy, dreaming of sweet, sparkly treats.
