My Little Suitcase
Lily, a courageous and curious 5-year-old, sets off on a journey from her home in Mexico to reunite with her family in the United States. Along the way, she faces obstacles and moments of doubt, but with her unwavering determination and love, she discovers that courage can make dreams come true.
Lily lived with her grandparents in a cozy house in Mexico, but she longed to be with her parents and brother in the United States. Her biggest wish was to pack her little suitcase and join them. However, the journey seemed impossible, and she often felt her dream slipping away.
One day, Lily heard her grandparents discussing how expensive and complicated it was to travel. " - Will I ever see my family in the United States?" Lily asked with a heavy heart. Her grandfather sighed, " - We need to save a lot and wait for the right time."
Determined, Lily decided to help by drawing pictures to sell at the local market. But when a sudden rainstorm ruined her drawings, she felt like giving up. " - What can I do now?" she cried, looking at the soggy papers.
Lily tried to dry the pictures, but the colors blended into a mess. Her grandmother hugged her and said, " - Sometimes, things don't go as planned, my dear." Lily nodded, feeling the weight of her dream slipping further away.
Feeling defeated, Lily spent the evening looking at the stars, wishing to fly like the butterflies she loved to draw. " - If only I could just fly to my family," she whispered to the night sky, clutching her little suitcase.
The next morning, a butterfly landed on her nose, reminding her of her dream to fly. A sudden idea sparked in her mind. " - Maybe there's another way," she thought, feeling a flicker of hope rekindled.
Lily decided to ask for help from her neighbors and friends, who all pitched in to support her journey. " - We believe in you, Lily!" they cheered, filling her with newfound courage and determination.
With everyone's support, Lily finally boarded a bus to the United States. As she looked out the window, her heart soared with joy, knowing she was on her way to reunite with her family. " - I'm really doing it," she whispered to herself, holding her little suitcase tightly.
