Once upon a time in a tiny town, there was a very curious thing—a glowing, golden mailbox that only appeared at midnight!
Every night, while the town lay snoozing snug in their beds, the Midnight Mailbox glittered and glimmered with magical light.
Tiny Tim, a boy with a big heart and even bigger curiosity, spotted the sparkly sight one evening before bedtime. 'What in the world?' he wondered.
He tiptoed out in his pajamas, slippers going pitter-patter, and approached the mail marvel. 'Hello, Magical Mailbox!' he called.
Suddenly, with a whoosh and a whirl, out popped a letter addressed to him! His eyes twinkled like stars as he read his name.
Tim opened it quickly and found an invitation inside. 'Come join the Midnight Mail Club!' it said.
The letter was signed by marvelous Mr. Moon, who lived up in the sky where dreams are born.
Tim could hardly wait. At the stroke of twelve, he met the Moon, who floated down on a ladder made of beams of moonlight.
'Welcome!' the Moon chuckled warmly. 'It's time for our first adventure!'
With a zap and a zizzle, they soared on starlight streams, visiting distant lands, and sharing letters filled with dreams! Swish, swoosh, away they flew!
They swooped and looped, giggling with glee until dawn. As morning's first light glimmered, Tim found himself back in bed, wondering if it was all a dream.
But as he opened his hand, there it was—a golden envelope from the Midnight Mailbox, shining brightly to start his day.
