main illustration: sarah sitting outside her rescue centre in forest with animal friends, cat, parrot, pangolin and monkey.: Sarah sits cross-legged in a circle of animals—a squirrel chattering in her ear, an owl nodding sagely, and a rabbit twitching its nose. The trees around them lean in, their leaves rustling with faint, glowing symbols A towering stone statue covered in moss and vines, its owl-like eyes suddenly flickering to life with green light. Sarah stands before it, holding out a peculiar leaf-shaped key, while the fox bristles at her side. Chapter 5: The Map in the Moonlight* *:* Sarah unravels a glowing map made of pressed leaves and tree sap, its lines shifting under the light of a full moon. Fireflies form constellations above her, mirroring the map’s symbols. A chilling silhouette of a twisted, branch-like creature slinking between the trees, its hollow eyes fixed on Sarah’s back. The forest around it is eerily still, with fallen leaves swirling in its wake. Sarah stands in a hidden glade where translucent, ghostly animals (a faded deer, a spectral wolf) circle a shimmering pool. She holds a flute made of vine, playing a melody that makes the spirits glow brighter. Sarah places her hands on the massive, pulsing "heart" of the forest—a giant tree whose roots glow like veins. The ground quakes as light spreads, rejuvenating wilted flowers and scaring away creeping shadows. Dawn breaks as Sarah hugs the fox goodbye at the forest’s edge. The trees lean toward her, leaves brushing her hair like fingers. In the distance, the stone guardian winks, its mossy face now smiling.

Luna and the Lost Star One night, a little girl named Luna looked up at the sky and gasped. A star was missing! A tiny voice whispered, “Help me!” Luna followed the voice and found a small, shivering star in her garden. The Journey Begins “I fell from the sky,” the star said. “I need to go home!” Luna smiled. “I will help you.” She climbed the tallest tree, but it was not high enough. She jumped on a cloud, but the wind blew her back down. A Magical Idea Luna had an idea! She picked up her kite and tied the star to its tail. She ran as fast as she could. The kite rose, higher and higher, until—whoosh!—the star flew back into the sky. The Happy Ending The star twinkled. “Thank you, Luna!” The sky shone bright again. Luna waved and whispered, “Goodnight, little star.”

The Witch and the Shark In the ocean, deep and blue,Lived a shark named Finn, who everyone knew.He loved to swim, so fast, so free,Gliding through the endless sea. Finn was huge, a giant so wide,With tiny fins on his massive side.His belly was white, his body light blue,With eyes so big, they sparkled too! He swam like a whale but faster, more free,A gentle giant beneath the sea.Though big and strong, he’d never bite,He’d rather play from day to night! But in the woods, both dark and tall,Lived a witch with a cackling call.Morwen was old, with skin dark green,The grumpiest witch you'd ever seen!Her nose was crooked, her fingers long,She loved to lie and sing spells wrong! The volcano rumbled, big and bold,Spitting smoke and lava cold.Morwen thought, "To calm this flame,A giant shark shall end its claim!" With magic words and swirls of air,She pulled Finn up—oh, what a scare!Through the jungle, past the trees,Over mountains, past the seas. The animals gasped, they saw him fly,A shark up high, up in the sky!“We must act fast, we must be spry,Or Finn will roast before our eyes!" The wise old turtle, slow but smart,Spread the word, made a start.The mighty sea spirit heard the call,And sent a wave—so huge, so tall! Just before Finn took the drop,The ocean roared—SPLASH, PLOP!A mighty wave, so strong, so wide,Swept Finn safely back inside. Morwen shrieked, her spell went poof,She slipped and slid right off the roof!Down she tumbled, wet and mad,No more spells—oh, she was sad! And so, Finn swam, both safe and sound,With fishy friends all gathered ‘round.The sea was calm, the sky was bright,And all was well, both day and night. The end! 🌊✨

Era uma vez dois amigos, João e Pedro, ambos com 8 anos, que foram desafiados por um projeto da escola a vender 10 brinquedos usados em uma semana. Os brinquedos eram muito especiais, mas cada um tinha suas qualidades e algumas coisas que não eram tão boas. João sempre explicava para as crianças o que os brinquedos faziam de legal, mas também falava sobre as coisas que não eram tão legais, como quando o brinquedo fazia barulho demais ou não funcionava muito bem em alguns momentos. Ele queria que todos soubessem a verdade para que pudessem decidir o que era melhor para eles. No final da semana, João conseguiu vender 6 brinquedos. Pedro, por outro lado, só falava das partes legais dos brinquedos e escondia as partes que não eram tão boas. Ele dizia o que as crianças queriam ouvir, mesmo que não fosse completamente verdade. No final da semana, Pedro conseguiu vender 13 brinquedos. Muitas crianças compraram os brinquedos de Pedro porque ele contou coisas que pareciam muito boas, mas que não eram verdadeiras. Isso fez com que algumas crianças ficassem tristes quando descobriram que os brinquedos não eram tão legais quanto Pedro havia dito. A história nos ensina que, mesmo que seja tentador dizer só o que as pessoas querem ouvir, a verdade é muito importante. Quando dizemos a verdade, estamos sendo honestos, e isso nos ajuda a ficar mais perto de Deus.
