"Mother says there’s no need to worry. As long as he follows her lead, he will stay with the flock. Mother also teaches him a song to guide him to the right direction. Relieved, Little Canary goes back to his play."
Which Way is South?
"The birds carry on their journey. Hey, what’s that? Mmm, those berries look delicious! Mother is busy with Little Canary’s brothers and sisters. Perhaps, Little Canary can quickly just grab a few berries."
Which Way is South?
"Just then the winds slow down. This place is so bright! This must be a town. Little Canary tries harder to recall the song. Finally, he remembers. Yay!"
Which Way is South?
"And when it gets a little too dark The Little Bear will make its mark Fly away from its shimmering tail Fly on south you will not fail. Little Canary needs to find Little Bear in the sky. Then he must fly away from the end of the bear’s tail."
Which Way is South?
"Perhaps it’s warmer among the leaves. Just then, he hears a rustle just above him. What is it? Is it the wind? Another bird? Or … a snake?"
Which Way is South?
"The flock of blue canaries continues their journey, singing: Fly, fly, to the south we fly To places warm and cozy Fly, fly, fly in the sky To the right the sunset you’ll see. And when it gets a little too dark Little Bear will make its mark Fly away from its shimmering tail Fly on south you will not fail."

"Indigo bunting (Passerina cyanea) or the blue canary, are birds that live in eastern United States and southern Canada. Male birds have bright blue feathers, and the females are brown. In the winter, the males lose their blue plumage and resemble the brown females, although a little bit of blue remains. Every autumn, the birds migrate to Mexico and to southern United States. They navigate with the rotation of the Polaris star of the Ursa Minor constellation (also known as Little Bear). Polaris lies at the end of the bear’s tail and is also known as the North Pole Star. It indicates the direction to the north pole and is always seen in the northern hemisphere. Light pollution from excessive artificial light in urban areas, makes it hard to see stars in the sky at night. This has a negative impact on nature, including obstructing bird migration. It is also evidence of electric energy waste."

The Elephant in My House
"Botom answered, “I want to be a forest worker so I can help elephants like Sakor and protect our land.” Suddenly, there was a big noise from outside. “Whoom! Whoom!”"

"To his right, a group of stars play with each other."

"To his left, a group of stars chat with each other."

"A star asks, "What were you drawing?" "Take a guess," says the moon. I think you drew letters," the star replies."

The Shy Moon
""How about we stars gather into different shapes and you guess what we are?" a star suggests."

"Sarah brought a gift for Reta. “Wow, this is a souvenir from Riedau Canal!" Reta says. "This is where tourists can do boat-riding, fishing, and skiing." Sarah does not expect that reaction. How does Reta know?"
The Great Teacher
""Salt, warm water, and milk are all good for soothing a burnt tongue. My teacher told me that," says Reta. Hm… she’s right! The burning sensation is instantly gone. "Your teacher is smart," Sarah tells Reta."
The Great Teacher
"Later that day, Reta and Sarah go shopping. Reta brings along a shopping bag with her. "My teacher told me that this is one way to reduce the use of plastic," she tells Sarah. Sarah wants to get to know Reta’s teacher."
The Great Teacher
"Wow! Some children are studying math, some are studying English, and some science. Sarah thinks it is a great way to learn."
The Great Teacher
"Reta's teacher is inspired by a woman named Een Sukaesih, often known as Bu Een. Bu Een graduated from the Indonesian University of Education in Bandung. She suffered from a disease called Rheumatoid Arthritis, which made her immobile for 27 years. Being persistent, Bu Een kept teaching while laying down, from 8 am to 8 pm. She taught English, history, computers, and math. Any child who wanted to learn was welcomed. Her students loved her so much so they all helped her with chores after their learning was done for the day."
The Great Teacher
"Gyanbi spends the whole day making his tiger sculpture. Sometimes it seems a bit too small. Sometimes the mouth doesn’t look right. At other times, the eyes are just too big. Despite it all, by the end of the day, the tiger was just the way Gyanbi had imagined it to be."
