A story about Adoption
for your 1st Grader.

Luna Lighthug was a sparkly, curious vampire girl. She lived in a cozy valley village, where the moon shone bright each night. She loved to dance under the moonlight.

One evening, a new family moved into a small house near the river. A smiling villager waved and said hello to welcome them.

Luna felt her little heart flutter. She had never seen people who looked so different before. “What if they do not like vampire magic?” she wondered.

Each night, Luna used her moon glow to help the villagers. She lit lanterns with tiny sparks and guided travelers along dark paths.

But when the new family gathered for a moonlit celebration, they sat in a circle and hummed soft songs, unlike the lively dancing Luna knew.

Luna felt unsettled. “Will they understand my bright magic?” she asked a friendly villager. “Change can be scary,” the villager said gently.

That night, the valley was peaceful, but Luna’s sparkly magic fizzled when she tried to show it. She felt sad and worried.

The new family asked Luna to become part of their home. “We would like to adopt you,” they said, kindly. This made Luna feel both happy and anxious.
