Once up on a time there was a man who went to space.
He went to space and he found something like a pizza crest.
He brought it home with him and he ate it.
He didn't know it was the moon.
Then he got sick and he got very very sick
He wanted to get better .He thought he will be better if he go to space again. So he went to space again and he saw something with an orange middle.
It was a star and he didn't know that. So he took it with him and he ate it. He felt a little better. He went to space again and again and he ate stars again and again.
His stomach got full and he fell asleep.
Next morning when he woke up he felt very different. His stomach got lighter and his skin got shiny
He started walking. One step he turned in to a moon and another step he changed into a star. Walking walking he turned in to a sky full of stars and the Moon.
Now at night if you walk outside your house and look up, you can see him far up in the sky looking and smiling at you. He turned into nothing but the blue shining sky with stars and the MOON .
The end.
