The Little Turtle Who Couldn't Swim

The Lonely Possum

The Lonely Possum was inspired by a possum who was found living in an odd place for such a creature to live, and that was behind the roller door of a garage! This story, being both simple and sweet, was written to demonstrate the similarities an animal can have to a human, for we all feel emotions. These emotions can be due to an action by another person or a reaction from one’s own actions. The Lonely Possum sees a possum react to events where it makes it feel alone, however, a kind gecko one day comes along to reassure the possum that no one is ever alone! Thus, also teaching children the importance of always being kind to one another.

The Lonely Potoo

Will the clever potoo be able to trick the other birds using a not-so-perfect disguise?

The Rats, the Cat and the Thieves

Miranda warned Auto as she put on her apron, “I will give you away.”

Miranda threatened to send Auto, a Siamese cat, away after she wrongly accused him of stealing food at night. He needed assistance because he couldn’t possibly look into the situation on his own.

Who will help him? He made the decision to approach his foes, the rats, for assistance in clearing his name because he had no idea who had stolen the food. When she threatened to give him away, Miranda meant it seriously. Auto is running out of time because food has been stolen three days in a row and the thief left the kitchen floor dirty.
