Page 1

Arjun lives in Ujjain. At night he climbs to the roof to see the stars.

Page 2

An old man gives Arjun a long tube. The moon looks so big!

Page 3

Arjun counts the stars. One, two, three... a hundred! Arjun is the star-counter of Ujjain.

Page 4

One star is moving! “That is not a star,” says the old man. “It is a planet.”

Page 5

Arjun draws the sky on a slate. Dots for stars. A circle for the moon.

Page 6

Every night now, Arjun draws one more star. The slate is nearly full!
