Story Details

Goup, a tiny kitten, tumbled into a garden. Colors popped! "How does light happen?" he squeaked, his tail twitching like crazy.

A shiny flower, holding a sun-drop, WINKED open. "Light is from the sun! Tiny photons zoom out! They help you see!"

Goup’s whiskers twitched. "Why so fast?" he purred.

The flower giggled, its petals GLOWING. "Zoom, zoom! They're on a big adventure! They want to show you the bright sky! They want to show you all these colors!"

Goup’s eyes grew round. "So, light is like a super-fast game of tag? With photons? I LOVE it!" He chased a butterfly, imagining tiny light-friends playing just for him.
