In a small town surrounded by a crystal-clear river, cheerful children lived who were always looking for adventures. One day, something incredible happened: a brightly colored spaceship descended from the sky and landed right in the middle of the town park. It was so striking that it looked like it was made of rainbows and stars.
Out of the spaceship came three small and friendly aliens. One was blue with pointy ears, another was green with huge moon-like eyes, and the third was purple with long antennae that bounced like springs. Although they looked strange, they had friendly faces and smiled a lot.
“Hello!” said the blue alien in a soft voice. “We are Ziko, Luma, and Pipa. We come from a distant planet called Estrellita. But we had a problem with our spaceship, and now we can’t return home.”
The children of the town, who had been watching from afar, slowly approached. At first, some were nervous, but when they saw how kind the aliens were, they felt brave enough to speak.
“Can we help you?” asked Mateo, an eight-year-old curious boy who always carried his backpack full of tools.
“Of course!” replied Luma, the green alien. “We need to find pieces to repair our engine. It’s like a puzzle, but we don’t know what materials are used here on Earth.”
The children got excited. It was a space mission! They ran all over the town collecting things that might be useful: old screws, wires, shiny cans, and even a piece of mirror they found in Sofia’s dad’s workshop. Everyone worked together, sharing ideas and laughing as they organized the pieces.
Meanwhile, Ziko explained how their spaceship worked.
“Our ship runs on solar energy, but the panel is broken. We also need something that reflects light to activate the engine,” he said, pointing to the mirror the children had brought.
Sofia, who loved to draw, took out her notebook and began making a map of how the pieces should be placed on the spaceship. The aliens were impressed by her creativity.
“Your drawings are amazing!” exclaimed Pipa, the purple alien. “They will help us a lot.”
With Sofia’s map and Mateo’s tools, the children and the aliens began repairing the spaceship. They used the mirror to redirect sunlight toward the solar panel, adjusted the wires, and tested the engine several times. Every time something failed, the children didn’t give up. Instead, they kept trying new ideas until everything worked perfectly.
Finally, it was time to say goodbye. The spaceship was ready to leave. The aliens hugged the children (or at least tried to, because their arms were very short and funny) and said:
“Thank you for helping us. We will never forget your kindness and ingenuity. If you ever visit our planet Estrellita, you will be welcomed as heroes.”
The spaceship slowly took off, leaving a trail of bright lights in the sky. The children looked up, excited and happy. They had made new friends from another world and learned that, even if someone is different, you can always work together to solve problems.
From then on, every time they saw a shooting star, the children of the town remembered Ziko, Luma, and Pipa, and dreamed of the day when maybe they too could travel among the stars.
End. 🛸
