Under the whispery grass of Meadow Hollow, Bram chased leaf shadows with his paws in the air. Swish went one leaf, flip went another, and Bram rolled after them until the world turned soft and upside down. The grass smelled green and rainy. A round stone beside him looked like a sleeping moon.
Then a tiny voice said, “You’re standing on my sky.” Bram blinked. On the underside of a leaf clung a blue beetle, looking down at him as if he were a cloud. Together they watched seeds float past like stars and flower faces shine like suns. Bram did not roll away. He let his curiosity run farther than his feet, and if you spot the sleeping-moon stone, you may find the beetle’s sky too.
