Lena was still sitting at her desk at midnight.

She couldn't reach her dreams.

She'd been trying all night; though she was awake, she was tired.

She read somewhere,

If you went to the moon, your dreams came true.

She stood on her doorstep and saw a beautiful, big, yellow moon.

She ran fast.

She reached to the moon, almost touching it.

That night, the moon came to her in a dream.

It told her,

"If you reach far enough, you'll catch your dreams."

Lena's dream of dancing came true.

She danced on the stage, where the bright lights shone.
