In the distant future, in the sunny city of Arizona, five-year-old Martha found a strange well in her backyard. It was said to be a magical wishing well that could make any dream come true. Martha was excited and wanted to make a wish right away. But there was a problem—the well only granted wishes to those who were honest. Martha had to figure out what honesty truly meant.
Martha made her first wish for a new toy, but nothing happened. She frowned and said, - Why didn’t it work? Her mom, who was nearby, overheard her. - Maybe you didn't believe in the well enough, her mom suggested. Martha decided she needed to find out more about how the well worked.
Martha asked her neighbor, Mr. Tom, about the well. - The well only listens to honest hearts, he said with a smile. Martha tried to wish for the toy again, but first she told a fib about cleaning her room to her mom. The well stayed silent. - This is harder than I thought, Martha said to herself.
Martha felt like giving up. - Maybe the well is just broken, she muttered. She sat by the well with her head down. Her friend, Sam, came by and saw her sad. - What's wrong, Martha? Sam asked. - The well isn’t working, and I don’t know why, Martha replied.
Sam thought for a moment and said, - Maybe you should try being really, really honest. Martha remembered the fib she told her mom. She ran back to her mom and apologized for not cleaning her room. - I’m sorry, Mom. I’ll clean it right now, Martha said. Her mom smiled and hugged her. - That's my honest girl, she said.
Martha went back to the well and made her wish again, this time with an honest heart. Suddenly, the well glowed, and a new toy appeared in her hands. - It worked! Martha shouted with joy. She learned that honesty always brings good things. From that day on, Martha always tried to be honest, and the well continued to grant her wishes.
