night zookeeper book 1 - Writing Ninjas

Before we go any further I would like to tell you a story. This story isn’tabout my zoo at all. It’s about what is above it; the sky.The sky at night is the most wonderous wilderness. The lights that hangthere, which from below look incredibly small; are actually bigger thanelephant ears.They’re giant golden torches that illuminate the worlds.There are millions of stars in the sky and I can only see a few of them frommy zoo. However I did get to know one of them very well.Look up into the sky and, if you’re very well behaved, I will introduce you tothe Wonky Star. “What is the Wonky Star?” you ask. Well I may be the onlyzookeeper in the world who can tell you.24
