Beschreibung

Awe-inspiring Transformation Tale: 'Baby Gardenia and Her Magic Stone' "Baby Gardenia and Her Magic Stone" is a delightful addition to the charming debut tale of "Baby Gardenia and Her Magic Glasses." The story unfolds deep within the lush subtropical woodlands of Baby Gardenia's homeland in South Africa. Baby Gardenia, a visually impaired baby White Rhinoceros, joyfully embarks on another profound journey of self-discovery with her devoted companion, Oxill the Oxpecker. Armed with her cherished handmade glasses, she marvels at the world with newfound clarity. Her enhanced vision not only brightened her life but also illuminated the lives of those around her. However, one fateful evening, everything would change as they trek their path homeward from night school at the WideEyed Academy. Pausing to cool off at their secret watering hole, Baby Gardenia spots a radiant, shimmering glow nestled among the rocks at the water's edge. Naturally curious, she can't help but take a closer look. "Wow! There it is, a purplish, hexagon-shaped stone," the very color and shape she had just learned about at night school. "Let's take it home, Oxill, and see what Momma thinks. She is so smart." Picking it up and balancing the glowing stone on her horn, off they go! "Huh! It's like my own nightlight, how handy!" Slowly tiring, Baby Gardenia stops to take a short nap under her treasured Baobab tree. Closing her eyes and protecting the mysterious stone, Baby Gardenia feels her heart race and a wave of unease wash over her. The once-starlit sky above her begins to blur, and the world around her seems to spin, like a crash of rhinos gone wild. As she hovers over the stone, her baby rhino body is trembling. Panicking, she calls out to Oxill, her loyal companion. "Oxill, what's happening?" Her voice quivers with fear as she feels her insides twist and turn like somersaults in a circus act. And then, in the blink of an eye, it happens. A magical poof fills the air, and the chaos ceases. As if a hidden spell had been cast, the turbulence dissipates, leaving behind an eerie calmness.
