Underwater Kingdom
Theo had always wondered what lived beneath the waves, and one night, as he stood at the shoreline in his pyjamas, a friendly seahorse bobbed up and invited him down to find out. A shimmering bubble wrapped gently around him, and before he knew it, he was drifting down, down, down into the blue.

New Baby Sibling
Elsie wasn't sure what to think when her parents brought home a tiny, squirmy someone who cried more than she expected, wrapped in a soft blanket and making the strangest little snuffling sounds.

Feeling Worried
Jack had a worry that followed him around all day like a small grey cloud, though he couldn't quite say what it was about. It sat heavy on his shoulders at breakfast, trailed behind him at playtime, and hovered stubbornly over his head all through the afternoon.

Making a New Friend
Ruby noticed a new girl standing alone at the edge of the playground, twisting her hands together and looking like she wished she could disappear entirely into the fence behind her. All around, other children ran and shouted and played, but the new girl stood very still, very small, very alone.

Going to the Doctor
