Flying Stars



Big Bear's Mailbox




A bear in search of a place to belong discovers more than just a beautiful land; it finds friendship, joy, and the little things that turn a house into a home. And when a letter from the stars arrives, it’s the final piece of the puzzle.

A sad bear left his hometown. He passed by many places, but he didn't know where to go. Every night he looked up at the starry sky, hoping to find his own star.
He found a beautiful place and built a house with the help of nearby animal friends. Finally, the new house was built, but everyone felt that something was missing. He improved the house according to everyone's suggestions, but only in his heart did he know what was missing. He built a mailbox. "Who will send you a letter?" The bear looked up at the sky and couldn't answer their question. Time passed day by day, and finally one day, he received a letter from the starry sky from the person he missed.
