The Magical Book

Once upon a time, in a big library, lived a blank book. It sat on the shelf, waiting. All the other books were full of stories, but this book had none. It felt a little sad.

One sunny day, a girl named Lila came to the library. She loved to read. Lila walked past all the books until she saw the blank one. "Hello," she said to the book. She opened it, but all the pages were empty!

Suddenly, something magical happened. As Lila touched the pages, words started to appear. The book began to write a story all by itself! It wrote about a brave knight, a silly dragon, and a hidden treasure. Lila gasped. The book was writing its own magical stories!

Each day, Lila visited the book. They made up stories together. The book wrote, and Lila helped. She learned that everyone has a story inside them, just waiting to be told. Even a blank book on a shelf!
