itle: "A Small School, A Big Dream" Alex was a hardworking student at Malitt Digos Elementary School. The school's name may be small, but Alex had big dreams. He wanted to graduate and make his family proud. Every night, he stayed up late studying to keep his grades high. One day, his best friend Marco asked, "Alex, why do you work so hard?" "I want to graduate and walk across that stage," Alex said with a smile. "I can't let my family down." As graduation day approached, the principal made a sad announcement during assembly. "Our school stadium, where many of you hoped to graduate, is unsafe due to old age. We need to raise funds to repair it," she explained. Alex felt disappointed. He had always dreamed of receiving his diploma on that stage. "We can't let this happen," Alex told Marco. "Let's do something to help." Together with their classmates, they organized fundraisers—bake sales, fun runs, and more. The whole school joined in, hoping to restore the stadium. On graduation day, Alex stood proudly in his cap and gown. Though the stadium still needed repairs, he knew they had made a difference. Can you help us to build our stage?

He waited on the other side, hoping he could help his friends. Scene 4 Benny, Finn, and the others came to the river. The water was too deep and fast to cross. “What do we do now?” Benny asked, feeling stuck. Finn sighed. “Maybe Toby could have helped,” he said.

Scene 6 Toby led his friends across the bridge. “You found this all by yourself?” Finn asked in amazement. Benny smiled. “I was wrong, Toby. You’re not too slow after all.” Scene 7 With Toby leading, the group reached the waterfall.

This story uses the metaphor of a stone to gently and powerfully convey the journey of grief and loss in a way that resonates deeply with children. It captures the heavy and often isolating feeling that accompanies grief, yet inspires hope by showing that, over time, we can grow strong enough to carry that weight. Through vivid imagery of soaring, grounding, and gradual strength building, children can relate to the experience of feeling weighed down by sadness while also seeing a path toward resilience. The protagonist’s journey from feeling stuck to finding a new way to rise offers a comforting reminder that healing is possible, even if it looks different from the past. By ending with a message of empathy and support for others who may carry the same weight, the story emphasizes the importance of kindness and uplifting others. In There's a Stone in My Pocket, a child once free to soar through life finds themselves weighed down by a mysterious stone that symbolises grief and loss. As they watch their friends fly, they feel stuck and alone. However, over time, they grow strong enough to carry the stone and find their own way to rise. This touching story explores themes of grief, resilience, and hope, ultimately showing young readers that while the weight of loss may never fully disappear, they can find the strength to move forward and even help others along the way.

Page 1Once upon a time, in a 1975 gray Ford car, lived Z'Rica Chanell. She was a 10-year-old African American girl with dark skin, big brown eyes and two afro puff ponytails tied with cotton candy looking ribbons. Z'Rica lived with her mom, little sister, and baby sister. They didn't have a home, so the car was their house. The back seat was Z'Rica's bedroom, and she kept her few belongings in a suitcase. At night, she'd sleep under a blanket, dreaming of a different life. Illustration: Z'Rica and her family in their car. Z'Rica is in the backseat, surrounded by her few belongings. Page 2Every day, Z'Rica would go to the library after school. She loved to read and learn new things. The library smelled like old books and felt quiet and peaceful.

Illustration: Z'Rica walking to the library, carrying her backpack and looking down at a book. Page 3One day, while she was walking to the library, she found a old book and a wooden comb on the ground near the library. The comb was special - it had African patterns carved into it.

V malém městečku Slunečná Zátoka žila trojice přátel – Lily, Alex a Max. Jednoho slunného odpoledne objevili pod starým dubem zažloutlou mapu, která vypadala jako starobylá. "Vypadá to jako mapa k pokladu!" vykřikl Tomáš a děti se rozhodly ji prozkoumat. Prvním cílem byla opuštěná zahrada za muzeem. Když dorazili, našli tam starou truhlu plnou barevného skla, které se třpytilo jako drahokamy. "Jsou to jen staré kousky skla," zklamaně poznamenal Martin, ale Anička podotkla, jaké krásné barvy mají. Tato zkušenost je naučila, že i obyčejné věci mohou mít skrytou krásu. Následně zamířili na vrch nad městem, kde objevili vzácné rostliny a motýly. Děti se rozhodly o motýly pečovat a nosily jim každý den kousky ovoce. Učily se, jak je důležité chránit přírodu a vážit si jejího bohatství. Posledním bodem na mapě byl starý maják u moře. Cesta byla náročná, ale děti se navzájem podporovaly. Když konečně dorazily, našly uvnitř majáku knížku pohádek a starých příběhů města. Tato kniha je inspirovala k výměně svých vlastních příběhů a dobrodružství. Při návratu domů, v záři zapadajícího slunce, si uvědomily, že největším pokladem není sklo ani motýli, ale přátelství, které si vybudovaly. Naučily se, jak je důležité spolupracovat a sdílet zážitky. Kouzelná mapa je zavedla na tajná místa ve městě, ale především jim ukázala poklady jejich srdcí. Jejich příběh se stal legendou v Slunečné Zátokě, příběhem o třech přátelích, kteří našli skutečný poklad – přátelství.
