The story of the ‘Sun Wizard’
From a Villager’s point of view
One day in our village something horrid happened.
Someone took night time away! That night was a
very special night, the night that the Wishing Shooting
Star would come, but the Sun Wizard had taken night
away and we were very worried. We felt frustrated,
disappointed and cross because all the children were
so tired, but could not get to sleep.
So, we wrote an anxious letter to the Sun Wizard to
tell him we need the Night Watchman back and how
upset we were. He listened to us and gave it back.
The shooting star came, we made our wishes and had
a big celebration party.
Now we have both night and day every day!

The story of the ‘Sun Wizard’
From the Sun Wizard’s point of view
I wanted it to be sunny all day long, so I looked
through my Spell Book and found the right one. Now
it was day time forever! I felt so happy and thought
that the villagers loved it too. But I was wrong. They
were shocked and grumpy. They sent me a letter and
told me to come down and bring my Spell Book. They
tricked me and took it off me and tore out the special
page. The spell broke and it was night again.
I was annoyed and upset, but I got to listen to their
celebrations. I guess I was confused, but they were
determined not to be in the sun all the time!

The story of the ‘Sun Wizard’
From the Night Watchman’s point of view
I was sitting up in the black, starry sky as usual.
Suddenly, I fell down in horror because it was my job
to shine at night, but the Sun Wizard had sent down a
letter to the villagers to tell them that it would never,
ever be night again. I was shocked and terrified that
it would always be sunny. The children were daydreaming instead of night-dreaming, very tired and
upset that they were going to miss the Wishing
Shooting Star. So they asked me to get the Sun
Wizard to come down and speak to the people of the
village. They told him of all the bad things that
would happen. The Sun Wizard looked at the
villagers and could see they
were upset and he felt sorry.
So he made it be night. I was
floating up again into the sky
just in time for the Wishing
Star!
