A story about Getting a New Brother
for your 1st Grader.

Flicker Sparkleaf tiptoed through the forest. She listened to the soft rustle of leaves. She felt a happy tingle in her heart.

Glimmer Puff floated above the wet grass. She sparkled like tiny stars and giggled with joy.

A little elf brother sat in a mossy cradle. He had bright eyes and soft, pointy ears. He let out a sweet giggle.

The mossy cradle rocked gently in the breeze. It made a cozy, green nest for new dreams.

Flicker felt a swirl of questions. Would her new brother share her best hiding spots? She knew it helped to talk when worries felt big.

Glimmer drifted close and whispered, “Let’s tell someone how you feel. You can also show him our forest secrets. Sharing can be fun!”

A circle of glowing mushrooms spread light on the forest floor. Their soft glow felt gentle, like a warm hug.

Sprig reached for a shiny leaf. He grabbed it with small fingers and let out a happy squeal.
