Starr and the Firefly

It was a beautiful summer morning, when a fun, loving, and mischievous dog named Starr left home to visit his Cousin Bella. On his way, he had to pass a park. He saw some of his friends playing by the sprinkler in the park and decided to join in the fun.

After a few lively laps and a high-speed chase, he went to rest under a tree and fell asleep.

When he woke up from his nap in the park, it was dark. He met a kind friend who offered to use her light to help guide him to his Cousin Bella's house.
