One in a Million

By Darnell Denzel Williams

Uriah is a third grader who loves to look at the stars. One night before going to sleep, his mother comes in and tells him that he shines like the stars in the sky. But when Uriah wakes up, the day takes a turn for the worst. He stops believing that he is like a star and wonders what makes him so special if he is just one in a million.
