Once there were five planets in the galaxy. However, there was a planet that was a little
different from other planets. Other galaxies did not welcome the unusual planet. This planet was
lonely and had been floating in space for a long time.
One day Saturn saw a bright yellow gleam.
The unusual planet drifted closer to see what the brightness was all about. The planet noticed
other different planets.
When Saturn came close enough, the other planets welcomed the unusual planet
with rings around itself. Saturn told of its experiences throughout the galaxy. And to Saturn's
amazement, the planets had experienced the same thing.
Mercury said no glaxay wanted such a hot
planet. Pluto said "I was too small to belong anywhere" . All the planets had a story to tell.
Saturn began to feel it was part of a family. The Sun said to Saturn, " If you want to join our
galaxy, we would love to have you." Saturn beamed with joy!
The End
