A lonely Creature lives deep within the mountain. Sadly, sunlight makes her sick, so her world is gray—until a spark from way up high falls down to her.

 
A lonely Creature lives deep within the mountain. Sadly, sunlight makes her sick, so her world is gray—until a spark from way up high falls down to her. She tries every night to reach the moon, dreaming of friendship. But one morning, a sun spark comes flying into her cave! What wondrous things she has to say about the vibrancy of life under the sun. Their time together is limited, but the Spark is curious and the Creature realizes she has some stories of her own to share.
