Nasla's Dream

''Nasla wants to sing,but at night, you do not sing.At night, you sleep.But what if the yellow dotgrows and grows? What ifit becomes big enough to swallow her whole?She would not be ableto sleep or sing.''

A girl is believed to be too old for her toys. Her father has gathered them all on the top of her wardrobe. But Nasla isn't ready to say farewell. She wants to talk to them because they are her true friends, and the only time she can do that is at night.

But grown-ups seem to believe that night is for sleeping. She must sleep.

Our beautiful, mysterious Moon understands Nasla's wish and invites her to a dreamy dance. But Nasla must face her fears.

A beautiful, albeit sad tale about a girl who wants her childhood back.
