'Twas a cold December evening in the little village of Evergreen, where each window glowed softly with the warm light of Christmas candles. The air was filled with the smell of pine and freshly baked gingerbread, as families everywhere prepared for the joyous holiday. Little Mia, a cheerful girl of eight, had just finished decorating the tall, green Christmas tree with her dad. "Look, Dad! I think the star goes at the top!" she exclaimed, pointing excitedly. They both smiled, but suddenly, Mia's heart sank. "Where's my favorite toy? The teddy bear I want to hold tonight!"

Under the flickering light of the star, Mia decided to search everywhere. She checked under the couch, behind the curtains, and even in the kitchen drawer, but the teddy bear was nowhere to be found. With a sigh, she sat down and looked out the window. A bright star twinkled in the night sky. "Maybe the Christmas Star can help!" she said aloud, filled with hope. Suddenly, the star seemed to sparkle even more, as if it had heard her wish. Mia closed her eyes tight, whispering, "Please, bring my bear back!"
