‘Breathe in…1, 2, 3, 4… now out …1, 2, 3, 4.’ Mayuka taught her dolls what she saw her mother, a psychologist, do often. After playtime, the 9-year-old busily punched the air, tapped her foot, twirled, and bent her knees… dance was her world! Her school’s annual day was coming up in two weeks. Mayuka was set to perform a group dance along with classmates from 4th standard first and later, a solo dance in the competition category. The girls prepared for the group dance with their class teacher. For her solo, she took help from Greta Miss, her dance teacher at the Dancing Stars studio near her home. Two weeks became one week and then soon enough Rainbow School’s annual day arrived. She was exhausted from the constant practice yet excited. ‘Welcome to Rainbow School’s Annual Day,’ read the banners everywhere. Mayuka walked into school chirpily with her mother. Since her father’s death a year ago, it was her mother who attended all her school events. Mayuka and her mom went to her classroom, buzzing with her dance pals. ‘Where’s my skirt?’ ‘Miss, my hairclips are missing.’ Ka-chik, ka-chik, selfies everywhere. Mayuka got ready quickly. Her mom gave her the usual good luck kiss. The dancers waited backstage as Miss Lily announced ‘Here come the dance champs of class 4!’ The audience clapped exuberantly before and after the dance.

In a cozy little house at the edge of town lived a curious Border Collie named Benito and his dad, Rodo. Every night, they shared a special ritual: reading together. Benito wasn't just any dog; he loved books. He would wag his tail excitedly when Rodo picked up a book, and then snuggle next to him on the couch. Their reading adventures took them to faraway lands and magical worlds. From tales of brave knights and dragons to stories of deep sea explorations, each book was a new adventure. Benito listened intently, his eyes fixed on the colorful pictures, occasionally pawing gently at the pages as if trying to touch the characters. Rodo loved these moments too. He cherished the bond that grew stronger with every page they turned together. Sometimes, he would pause and ask Benito what he thought about a character or a story twist. Benito would respond with a soft bark or a nuzzle, as if giving his own opinion.

Once upon a time, in a far-off universe, there was a little star named Twinkle. Unlike the other stars, which shone with a silvery light, Twinkle glowed with a warm golden light. This made Twinkle feel special, but sometimes, it also felt lonely. One day, Twinkle decided to leave its star cluster to explore the universe, in search of stars like itself. It traveled through countless galaxies, encountering various stars, but it found none like itself. During its journey, Twinkle came across a bright blue planet. The children on the planet felt joy and comfort whenever they saw Twinkle shining in the night sky. Twinkle realized that even though it was different from the other stars, this was what made it unique. Its difference allowed it to bring special happiness to others. From then on, Twinkle stopped looking for stars similar to itself. It learned to appreciate its uniqueness and used its special light to illuminate the night sky, bringing hope and joy to the children on Earth.
