Sophie and the Math Magician
Sophie, a curious 10-year-old, struggles with math until she finds an enchanted book in her school library. This book introduces her to the Math Magician, who takes her on an adventure in the Land of Numbers. Together, they face challenges and solve puzzles. Will Sophie gain wisdom and confidence to overcome her math struggles?
Sophie loved reading, but math was her nemesis. It seemed like numbers danced away from her understanding. One day, she stumbled upon an old, dusty book in the school library. As she curiously opened it, the pages glowed, revealing a magical world. - What is this? Sophie wondered, her eyes wide with excitement.
Suddenly, a figure appeared from the pages—a Math Magician! - Hello, Sophie, he greeted, tipping his starry hat. - Who are you? Sophie asked, amazed. - I'm here to help you find the magic in math, he replied with a twinkle in his eye.
The Math Magician invited Sophie to the Land of Numbers, where everything was possible. - Let's go on a number adventure, he said with enthusiasm. But Sophie hesitated, worried about her math skills. - What if I can't do it? she asked nervously. - Trust yourself, the Math Magician reassured her.
In the Land of Numbers, Sophie faced her first challenge—a maze made of equations. - Solve them to find your way, the Math Magician instructed. Sophie scratched her head, struggling with the numbers. She felt like she was walking in circles. - I can't find the way, she sighed.
Sophie was determined to succeed, but the next challenge was tougher. There were floating islands, each with a puzzle to solve. - What happens if I can't solve them? Sophie asked, feeling anxious. - We'll find a way together, the Math Magician encouraged her. The puzzles seemed to mock her with their complexity.
After struggling with the islands, Sophie encountered a giant number dragon guarding a bridge. - You must solve my riddles to pass, the dragon bellowed. Sophie felt a wave of panic. She tried to remember everything she learned. - I think I can do this, she whispered to herself.
Despite her efforts, Sophie couldn’t answer all the riddles. - I can't do it, she admitted, tears in her eyes. The Math Magician placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. - Sometimes, we just need a new perspective, he said kindly. Sophie nodded, but doubt lingered.
Feeling defeated, Sophie considered giving up. - Maybe math just isn't for me, she sighed. The Math Magician looked at her thoughtfully. - Remember, wisdom comes from trying, he said. His words sparked a small light of hope in Sophie’s heart.
Suddenly, Sophie had an idea. - What if I look at the problems differently? she exclaimed. The Math Magician smiled, nodding in approval. With renewed determination, Sophie approached the challenges again. The puzzles seemed to unravel before her eyes.
With newfound confidence, Sophie solved the dragon's riddles and crossed the bridge. - You did it! the Math Magician cheered. Sophie beamed with pride, realizing math could indeed be magical. - Thank you for your wisdom, she said. The Math Magician winked, and Sophie knew she would never fear math again.

When she got home she asked the doorman, Mr. Bob, if he had seen them. “No, I haven’t seen them for quite a while.” He said. “Would you like to leave them a message?” “Yes sir.” She says. “Please tell them I have found something wonderful.” “Okay, Princess.” He says. “I will let them know right away. Where are you going now?” “I am going back to work, I need to hurry so I don’t miss my partner. He really worries about me when I’m not on time. I’ll see you later, Mr. Bob.” On her way to work with her crown, she stops at a school and watches for a short time. Kids are playing on the see-saw, sliding board, and swings. She thinks to herself, that really looks like a lot of fun but not for me, I must make it back to work. When she sees her partner Mr. Wilbur, and his hotdog stand, she asks how he is doing today. “I am doing fine. I see you are running a little late. I was getting worried about you getting here.” Title; Junk Princess “I am so sorry, Mr. Wilbur.” Princess says. “I am so excited right now, I found something wonderful, and you are not going to believe it. Look, Mr. Wilbur, just look at this beautiful crown. It fits right on my head, what do you think about my crown?” “It is a beautiful crown, and you look like a princess with it on your head. Where did you find such a beautiful crown, Princess?” “You know how I look for junk toys every morning? Today I went to the dumpster that sits behind the 10th street library. I always have trouble getting into that one. Only, this time I found some milk cartons and stacked them on top of each other. I climbed my way into the dumpster and as I was looking through the rubbish, there it was. Shining through the garbage, I could hardly leave it, and it was just for me.” She explains. “Mr. Wilbur, can you believe I found my own princess crown? How do I look in it?” “You look like a little princess.” He says. “You better get to work little princess, the rush crowd is about to come.” So, princess gets everything ready to sell on her little table. She has little dolls, books, and all kinds of toys to sell. She pulls up her stool and sits down, getting ready for all the customers that are coming. Mr. Wilbur is getting his hotdog card ready. “It’s almost time to sell your hotdogs. They are going to smell really good Mr. Wilbur.” Princess says. “They are making me very hungry.” “Would you like to have one?” He asks. “Yes sir.” Princess replies. Title; Junk Princess Mr. Wilbur makes her a very special hotdog with chips and a drink. “Here you go Princess, enjoy.” He says. She was so hungry she forgot to say thank you. As she is munching on her hotdog and potato chips, some of the kids and a teacher from school came down to get some hotdogs from Mr. Wilbur. “Are the hotdogs ready?” The teacher asked. “Yes, they are.” Mr. Wilbur says. “How many would you like?” “Well, there’s 15 kids with me today, so that’ll be 15 hotdogs, drinks, and chips, please.” “Coming right up.” Mr. Wilbur says. Some of the kids walked over to Princess’ table and asked how much the little dolls were. “They’re just 15 cents each. How many would you like?” She asked eagerly. “How much for all of them?” One of the little girls asked. Princess began to count her toys. “You really want all of it?” She asked. “All of it.” Princess begins to count again. “Let me figure this out. I’ve never had anyone ask me for all of it.” “Come on, give me the price, how much for all of your toys?” Princess goes over to Mr. Wilbur and whispers in his ear. “How much is it, Mr. Wilbur? I can’t count that high, can you please help me?” Title; Junk Princess Mr. Wilbur is very busy with customers all around him. He really wants to help her, he just can’t do it at the moment. So the kids begin to pick on Princess, saying if she can’t count, it’s her problem. “Come on, let’s go, she can’t count.” They were very mean to Princess, but she did have a problem, she could not count very well. As the kids began to leave, one of the little girls that was with them spoke to Princess. “Maybe I will come back after school if you are still here, then I will buy all of your toys.” “Okay.” Princess replied, but as the little girl began to walk away, Princess cried. “What’s wrong?” Mr. Wilbur asked. “Why are they making fun of me?” Princess asked him. “I don’t understand. It just hurts so much, Mr. Wilbur.” She cries. “Well, Princess, kids can be hurtful. But I don’t think they mean to be, they just are. Get your things together, it’s almost time for us to pack up and leave.” As Princess begins to pack up her toys to leave the corner, she sees her mom and dad coming to get her. She runs and grabs her mom and hugs her tight. “What’s wrong, little princess?” Her mom asks. “The kids from school came to get hotdogs, and they were being mean to me. I don’t think I want to be out here selling toys tomorrow.” Her dad picks her up into his arms, and tells her a story. Title; Junk Princess “When I was a little boy,” He begins. “I was picked on by some boys in our neighborhood just because I didn’t look as good as they did in their clothes. You see Princess, my mom and dad did not have a lot of money to buy me new clothes. So, they took me to the Salvation Army to buy my clothes. I didn’t know any better. The clothes they were buying me were for school. But it was the best that they could do at the time. Those kids did not understand bad times because their parents could buy them new clothes. So don’t cry my little Princess, one day, things will get better for our family.” The all said goodbye to Mr. Wilbur and went back to the shelter for the night. When Princess got back to the shelter, it was time for them to eat their dinner. She looks up at her mom and dad as they began to eat. “Mom, Dad, don’t worry about me, I am going to be okay, and do you know why?” She asked them. “Because Daddy really helped me to understand why those kids were being so mean to me today. Tonight, when I go to bed, I am going to say a very special prayer for them, isn’t that right, Mom?” “Yes it is my little Princess, you are absolutely right. You pray for them because they truly need it. Finish up your dinner Princess, soon it will be time for bed.” “Yes, Mom.” Prince says. When Princess finished eating her dinner, she brushed her teeth and gets ready for bed. After she changed into her pajamas, she kneeled down and began to pray. “Lord Jesus, please help those kids that came to the hotdog cart today. They really need your help, I don’t think they’re bad kids, I just think they you in their lives, I know I do. By the way, thanks you for Title; Junk Princess showing me the princess crown, I really needed it. Thank you ever so much, in Jesus’ name I pray, amen. Good night Jesus.” Off to sleep she went. The next morning, they all get up from their sleep. Princess hurries to the bathroom to wash her face and get ready for her day. “This is going to be a wonderful day.” She says. “I am not going to let those kids bother me again,” Her mom says to her. ”You better get a move on, Princess, we have a long day ahead of us. Get your things and let’s go.” The doorman comes looking for their whole family and tells them there is a strange man at the gate asking for them. “What does he want?” He mom and dad ask. “He did not say, I think you better come and see him.” They follow him to the man at the gate. Mom and Dad look a little worried about who this man is, they almost don’t want to go and see him. “What can we do for you?” They ask. “My name is Mr. Dudley, I am with the schoolboard. I am here to get your daughter to school right away. How long has she out of school?” He asks. “Well,” The dad says. “Since the pandemic hit our community, it has been hard for her to get to school. I lost my job working at the mall. My wife was a stay-at-home mom. We ended up losing our home, which is not far from here. It’s been really difficult for us to maintain our livelihood.

I do work for the schoolboard, but I also have my own little business. I invest in the real estate market and I really want to help you guys out, I have some apartments and I could really use a handyman that can do some work around the complex. If you are willing to do that, I will let your family stay in one of the units. How does that sound?” “That sounds like God is trying to help us move forward. It will be my honor and a great pleasure to help you as you are helping us. We thank you very much, Mr. Dudley, you have saved my family.” His wife and Princess hug each other in celebration. “Let me show you where you and your family will be living.” As they hop into Mr. Dudley’s car to go to their new home, he explains to them that he will pay them for their work so they will be able to buy Princess new clothes for school.

By the way, did you figure out how much all of your toys cost?” “Yes, I did.” Princess says. “It will cost five dollars. How does that sound to you?” “That sounds fantastic.
