The Lantern of Whispering Leaves

Lantern of Whispering Leaves invites young readers into Whispering Valley, where an eight-year-old girl named Aria discovers a tiny, living lantern hidden in the heart of an ancient oak. When the villagers' frantic voices dim its light, Aria's act of gentle listening revives its glow-and with it, the long-awaited rain. This enchanting tale celebrates the power of empathy, mindfulness, and respect for the natural world, showing children that sometimes the greatest magic happens when we pause, hush our hearts, and truly listen.
