STARZAN
by Annika Sher
(age 9)
Starzan was
a constellation. He sparkled brighter
than any other constellation
except one, Ursa Major. His
stars were comets. O, Starzan was so
JEALOUS!
One day while all of the constellations were sleeping, including Ursa Major, Starzan
took one of Ursa Major's stars and
replaced it with one of his. Now Starzan had 1 comet and Ursa Major had 1 star.
The next
day he did the same thing. And the next, and the next, and the next. Until Starzan
had all comets and Ursa Major had all stars.
This interested Ursa
Minor.( He was Ursa Major's best friend.) He took a
look at Starzan (ST) He was known for having
1 black hole. Now Ursa Major had a black hole!
Ursa Major (UMA) And Minor (UMI)
made a plan. UMA was going to borrow 2 of UMI's stars and say that the black hole gave him the stars. So they
did the plan and ST said he was sorry, so him and UMA traded stars and comets
and were happy!

I love the name Starzan. =]
ReplyDeleteJealousy sure makes us do things we shouldn't do. I'm so glad they got things straightened out and were happy in the end.
Good job, Annika! =]
Finding the Big Dipper in Ursa Major and looking at the stars and planets some of my favorite things to do. I enjoyed your creative story. I would describe it as "stellar." Super work, Annika!
