Sahlee and the Meatball Sub
Join Sahlee, a determined young woman, as she navigates the bustling streets of New York City in pursuit of the perfect meatball sub. Along the way, she faces unexpected challenges that test her courage and resolve. Will Sahlee find the elusive sub and satisfy her craving?
Sahlee lived in the heart of New York City, and today she craved one thing more than anything else: a perfect meatball sub. As she looked out her apartment window at the bustling streets below, her stomach rumbled in anticipation. " - I need to have that sub," Sahlee declared to herself. However, her favorite deli had closed down last week. This simple desire suddenly seemed like an insurmountable quest.
Determined not to let this setback stop her, Sahlee set off to find another deli. She remembered a recommendation from a friend about a place in Midtown. " - Surely they have the best meatball subs," she thought. When she arrived, there was a line out the door. " - Oh no, I'll never get my sub at this rate," Sahlee sighed.
As Sahlee finally reached the counter, the server shook his head. " - Sorry, we just ran out of meatballs," he said apologetically. Crestfallen, she decided to try another place across town. The subway was packed, and she missed her stop in the crowded chaos. " - How can something so simple be so hard?" she muttered, feeling the weight of her journey.
Exhausted and hungry, Sahlee slumped onto a park bench, considering giving up. Her phone buzzed with messages from friends, inviting her to dinner. " - Maybe I should just accept defeat," she pondered aloud. But deep down, she knew she couldn't give up. " - I've come this far, I can't quit now," she resolved, though her spirit waned.
Just as Sahlee was about to head home, an elderly woman sitting nearby offered some advice. " - Sometimes, the best things are found when you're not looking," she said with a wink. Inspired, Sahlee decided to try a small deli she'd never noticed before. " - Maybe this is it," she thought hopefully, feeling a renewed sense of courage.
To her delight, the hidden gem of a deli had the most amazing meatball subs she'd ever tasted. " - This is exactly what I wanted!" Sahlee exclaimed with joy. She realized that her persistence had paid off, and the journey was worth the struggle. " - Courage really does lead to the best rewards," she thought, savoring every bite. Filled with satisfaction, Sahlee knew she'd conquered her quest.

Alex, Zach, & Obi-Wing Kenobi Take on France
The two playful, adventurous little boys, each bursting with energy and curiosity couldn’t believe it—they were really going to France! The brothers, seven-year-old Alex and ten-year-old Zach, with backpacks stuffed with cool stuff—both real and pretend—could not wait any longer. Just as they were about to board the plane, a majestic grey heron swooped down, landing gracefully in front of them. “Whoa! Look at that bird!” Zach said, his eyes wide. “Let’s call him Obi-Wing Kenobi!” Alex declared, smiling at his Star Wars-inspired name. The heron tilted its head as if acknowledging his new title, then spread his wings and soared into the sky, joining them on their epic adventure. When they arrived in Paris, Obi-Wing Kenobi was already there, gliding gracefully over the city. He perched proudly on top of the Eiffel Tower, watching over Alex and Zach as they explored the city streets. Soon, they were on a train heading to Chamonix, with Mont Blanc’s snowy peaks waiting to greet them. The boys were bundled up like walking marshmallows, ready to face the cold. Obi-Wing Kenobi, on the other hand, kept his distance from the chilly snow, watching from high above as his scarf blew in the wind, his sharp eyes ever-alert under his red beret. Next stop? Strasbourg, where they met Grandad and Mainie for an exciting barge adventure! As the boys stepped onto the boat, Obi-Wing Kenobi swooped down and perched on the roof, ready to lead them through the waterways. He was the captain of the skies, scouting ahead, flying low over the water as they passed through locks and marveled at the castles that rose on the horizon. First, they climbed the steps of the grand Notre Dame Cathedral, their jaws dropping in awe as they gazed at the stunning architecture. Each step felt like they were rising into a new world, and even Obi-Wing Kenobi perched on a nearby ledge, quietly observed the majesty of the place and making new feathered friends along the way. After a dinner of frogs’ legs, a French delicacy, and hot chocolate, the boys headed to bed, exhausted from the day’s adventures. Obi-Wing Kenobi, perched on the roof of the barge, tucked his head under his wing, and soon fell asleep, dreaming of all his journeys and flights through faraway lands. On rainy days, Zach and Alex splashed in puddles, and Obi-Wing Kenobi flapped his wings, shaking off the raindrops with style. They couldn’t help but laugh at their E = mc 2 heron friend, who always seemed to know when a new adventure was just around the corner. When the rain kept them indoors, the boys would sit down with their favorite books and read The Adventures of Tintin to Obi-Wing Kenobi. The graceful bird listened quietly, his head cocked to the side as if he were just as invested in the mysteries and adventures as they were. After their canal adventure, it was time to wave Grandad and Mainie goodbye as they ventured ahead on one final journey—Dubai! In the desert, Obi-Wing Kenobi flew above the golden dunes, his wings casting shadows across the sand. The boys zoomed over the dunes on buggies, and Obi-Wing Kenobi soared alongside them like an expert pilot. When they reached the towering Burj Khalifa, Alex and Zach marveled at its height. Zach exclaimed “It looks like a giant pencil!” while Alex said, “I bet we could fit a hundred frogs in there!” As their adventure drew to a close and they boarded the flight home to Cape Town, Obi-Wing Kenobi flew beside the plane, his wings cutting through the clouds as if guiding them back home. When they landed, he made one last swoop overhead, dipping his wings as a farewell before disappearing into the sky. Together, the boys are inseparable, darting around with wide-eyed wonder, the wind in their hair and mischief in their steps. Alex and Zach knew this wasn’t the last time they’d see their feathered friend. Obi-Wing Kenobi, their trusty sidekick, was out there always ready for the next grand adventure, real or pretend, and there’s no telling how far their imaginations will take them.
