Scene 1 Toby, the slow turtle, wanted to go with his friends to find the hidden waterfall. “You’re too slow, Toby!” laughed Benny, the rabbit. “We’ll get there before you even start!” Feeling a little sad but determined, Toby watched his friends leave and decided to follow at his own pace. Scene 2 Toby began walking slowly but steadily. Along the way, he noticed a hidden path the others didn’t see. “This looks interesting,” he said and followed it. Scene 3 Toby found a wooden bridge hidden behind bushes. It crossed a big, rushing river. “This must be a shortcut!” Toby thought and crossed it carefully. 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 5 “Over here!” Toby shouted from the other side of the river. The friends looked up and saw Toby standing by the hidden bridge. They quickly ran to him. 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. It sparkled in the sunlight, and everyone cheered. “Toby, you saved us!” Finn said. “You showed us that being slow doesn’t mean you can’t do great things,” Benny added. Toby smiled proudly, happy to be part of the adventure.

The Rise of Liam Rose Liam Rose first stepped onto the ice at age 4, and from that moment, he was hooked. Now 13, he plays for Moon Middle School and the Arctic Foxes as a defenseman known for his hard work. Despite his potential, Liam struggles with confidence, often questioning if he’s good enough. His coach encourages him, saying, “Hockey is about more than skill—it’s about believing in yourself.” The Arctic Foxes enter a Michigan hockey tournament to face tough competition. Before the first game, Coach surprises Liam by assigning him to forward, urging him to use his speed and skill to score. Though nervous, Liam rises to the challenge. Midway through the second period, he intercepts the puck and scores a stunning goal, feeling the thrill of contributing offensively. In the second game, tied late in the third period, Liam doesn’t hesitate. He dekes past the goalie and scores the game-winner. In the third game, Liam returns to defense, playing a pivotal role in shutting down the opposing team and advancing the Arctic Foxes to the championship. The final game is intense, but Liam seizes his moment. Late in the game, he finds himself open in front of the net and scores the winning goal. The Arctic Foxes become tournament champions, and Liam is swarmed by his jubilant teammates. As the team hoists the banner, Liam realizes he’s proven himself—not just to others, but to himself. Coach’s words echo in his mind: “You’ve got what it takes. You always have.” From that day, Liam knows hockey is more than a sport; it’s a journey of self-discovery and confidence.

I’m Apple, and I’m a bunny. This is my cozy little home! I really love it here! But being part of the Apple family can be tough sometimes. We’ve planted so many fruits and veggies! Oh no! The crows keep swooping down, stealing our hard work! When the villagers blame us for the food shortage, it makes me sad that there’s nothing left to eat! It feels like we’re always on the menu! People think we’re the Apple family because we love apples, but it’s really because we have a huge apple farm. Life is hard when every-bunny is fighting all the time. It’s like a constant game of hide and seek! Then one day, a red fox named Flower came to our village. Some animals were curious, but some bunnies were scared. I was nervous too and wondered why she was being so nice. I wanted to say hi, but I just couldn’t because I was too shy. It felt like my heart was doing a little pitter-patter. Flower started helping us out, working side by side and showing us how to farm better. She helped us grow our fruits and veggies really well! She told tail-wagging tales about her adventures and how she learned different ways to plant seeds. I started to feel more comfortable around her as I listened. One day, while we were planting together, I noticed that Flower struggled to reach a high branch. Gathering my courage, I hopped over to her. “Do you want me to help?” I squeaked, my heart racing like a hare. She looked surprised but smiled back at me. “That would be great, Apple!” I felt a thrill inside when she said my name! I helped her reach the branch, and we laughed together as we worked. It was the first time I’d really spoken to her, and it made me realize that talking to new friends wasn’t so scary. Who knew making friends could be so paws-itively delightful? As days went by, Flower and I grew closer. I learned she had a big heart and wanted to help our village. Together, we found ways to scare away the crows with shiny distractions. Talk about a sparkly strategy!

On a small kibbutz in Southern Israel lives a six-year-old boy named Avi. Every day after school, Avi and his friends play soccer on a large field. Next to the field, a factory is being built. Avi’s dad, Mr. Ben-David, manages the construction site. Avi loves to visit him and learn about all the different things that go into building the factory - clearing the land, pouring the foundation, and erecting the frame. One sunny afternoon Avi wandered away from his soccer game to visit his dad. This was something he did often. But today was different. He noticed a new, unfamiliar face at the worksite. He approached the stranger and cheerfully introduced himself. “Shalom, my name is Avi,” he said to the man. The man, with a warm smile, turned to Avi. “Shalom Avi, it’s good to meet you. I'm Omar." He then performed a captivating magic trick with his hands, leaving Avi mesmerized. Avi noticed that the man spoke Hebrew, just as he did, but with a different accent. He also had a first name he hadn’t heard before. Avi wondered about this nice new stranger as he walked home with his soccer ball cradled beneath his arms. That evening, as his family shared dinner around the table, Avi asked his dad about the man. “aba, I met Omar today. He’s so nice. He has a funny accent and a funny name and can do magic tricks! Who is he? Where did he come from? Can I come see him again?” “Whoa, slow down Avi. What’s with all this curiosity?”, Mr. Ben-David replied. “I don’t know, Aba. It’s nice to meet new and different people. I think he liked meeting me, too!” “Well, Avi, Omar is Palestinian from Gaza and he will be crossing into Israel each day from now on to help with building the new factory. And each night he will go back to Gaza to be with his family. It’s a long day for Omar so perhaps you should let him focus on his work.” “I will aba, but I’m just so curious. He’s my new friend. If I see him when I come visit I’ll only talk to him a little bit.”
