The Fox Who Saved His Questions for the Stars

A young fox has too many questions to sleep, so he gives each one to a star and keeps only the one that feels warm.

The whole story

1. At bedtime, a young fox counted the stars through his den window. Then he counted his questions.

2. Why does the owl stay awake? Why does the moon follow him? Where do dreams go before they arrive?

3. He placed one pebble beside each question. Soon the pebbles covered the floor, but his questions kept coming.

4. At last, he stepped outside. The stars shone above the meadow, quiet and patient.

5. He gave his first question to a star. Then he gave another, and another.

6. The stars held his questions without answering them. The quiet felt lighter.

7. Only one question stayed with him. It glowed quietly beneath his ribs.

8. He gave each question to a star and kept only one. It was the question that felt warm: What might I wonder tomorrow?
