Ama's Star Lantern:
In a tropical village where mango trees grow tall, Ama, the fruit bat, has created the most beautiful lantern for the Christmas Eve Star Lantern Festival.
Tonight, all the young bats will fly their lanterns to the highest tree branches while the village drums and celebrates below.
But Ama is terrified. Everyone will watch her. What if she wobbles? What if she drops her lantern? What if she looks silly?
With Nana Akosua's gentle wisdom and the rhythm of ancient drums, Ama discovers something powerful: she's not flying for the watchers. She's flying for the light.
A radiant story about social anxiety, cultural celebration, and discovering that being watched doesn't make you small?it makes your moment shared.
For every child afraid of being watched, and every family learning that courage means flying anyway.
