If you look very carefully at night, as the mist disappears, the shadow still stands there, guarding his home. No one has ever seen him, only his shadow. His boat travels silently up and down the river every night. High in the tree, the door remains shut, lit only by a single light. No visitors are seen, no noises heard, only the slight creaking of the wooden path leading to and from the tree.
Then one night, everything changed. The shadow was gone and left in its place a …

I was puzzled. Things just kept disappearing from our garden. At first it was just small things, like my toy car , then larger things began to go missing. Dad’s lawnmower vanished. Mum’s favourite plant pot with her favourite plants in. Gone! Just gone!
My parents kept saying that there were thieves on our street. I believed them. Of course I believed them! Why wouldn’t I believe them, they’re my parents?! Sneakily, I got into the habit of looking out of my bedroom window with my camera, in the hope that I would catch a snapshot of the crooks in action.
One afternoon, after I had got in from school and done my homework, I stood at my bedroom window. I was ready. I had my camera in hand. I then watched in amazement and shock as the giant oak tree, that had stood in our garden since before I was born, was dramatically wrenched from the ground by an unseen force. Its great branches and straggling roots and shaking, green leaves began to be pulled towards a hole, the size of a pound coin, in our garden fence. I watched as the tree began to be squeezed, again by this unseen force, through the hole in the fence.
A minute later I was standing with my camera at the ready, peering through the hole in the fence, desperate to find out what had happened to all the things from our garden. Then…I felt it…My eye began to feel as if it was being squeezed. My head felt as if it was being pulled towards the fence. My whole body seemed to be moving. Suddenly…Pop!
Can you continue the story? What was on the other side?

Toby poked his large, shaggy head out of his front door and sniffed. He loved the smell of the forest, especially first thing in the morning. He could almost taste the fresh, leafy goodness on his slobbering tongue as he dangled it out of his yawning mouth.
He could hear a rustling noise coming from nearby; one of the others was awake. You see, Toby wasn’t the only dog that lived in the forest…

Nellie the elephant packed her trunk and said goodbye to the circus.
Performing at the circus had been Nellie’s life, but last night something terrible had happened. Hopes and dreams had been destroyed, leaving the circus in smouldering ruins. Nellie’s friends had all fled in a dozen different directions to escape the terrible flames.
Exhausted and drained, lonely and afraid, Nellie plodded over the scorched, broken ground as she was forced to forge a new future for herself.
Anxiously staring far into the distance, Nellie could make out a glimmer of glorious green: land that was unspoilt by flames. This glimmer of green represented a glimmer of hope. Nellie began to feel better. Maybe there was hope after all…
