Once upon a time, in a realm above the clouds, there lived a Moon Princess named Luna. Her home shimmered like a pearl against the night sky.
Though she loved her lunar kingdom, Luna often gazed down at Earth, yearning to explore the lush, green lands she saw.
One night, when the moon's glow was the brightest, Luna saw a shooting star and made a wish. 'I wish to visit Earth,' she whispered.
To her surprise, a soft voice answered, 'Your wish is my command!' Suddenly, Luna began to descend towards Earth.
Gently landing in a field of flowers, Luna was in awe of the colors and fragrances. She danced joyfully under the moonlight.
A little boy named Max noticed the glow and approached. 'Who are you?' he asked, curious about the sparkling figure.
'I am Luna, the Moon Princess. I wished to visit your world,' she replied, her eyes sparkling like stars.
Max promised to show Luna the wonders of Earth. Together, they explored forests, mountains, and streams.
Yet, as the night waned, Luna grew paler. 'I can only stay till dawn,' she realized. 'Then, I must return to the moon.'
Max felt sad. 'I will miss you,' he said. 'But, we can still be friends.' He pointed at the moon, 'You'll just be up there.'
As the first sunlight touched the horizon, Luna's feet lifted off the ground. 'Thank you, Max, for the beautiful night,' she called down.
Max waved, smiling through his tears. Every night, he would look up, knowing his friend, the Moon Princess, was watching over him.
