The Witch Who Saved Magic

Once upon a time, in a land far away, lived a kind witch named Willow. Willow loved magic more than anything. But magic was fading in her land. It was disappearing! Willow knew she had to do something.

Willow had a special idea. She would store magic everywhere! Not just in wands and books, but in things all around. She put magic in the blooming flowers. She hid magic in the singing birds. She tucked magic into the twinkling stars.

One sunny morning, a little girl named Lily felt sad. Willow saw her and smiled. "Look around, Lily," she said. "Can you see the magic?"

Lily looked at a bright red rose. She smelled its sweet smell. She saw a tiny sparkle on its petals. Lily giggled. "I see it!" she cried. She felt happy again. The magic in the rose made her smile.

More and more people found the magic. They found it in the buzzing bees and the tall trees. Willow was so happy. She had saved the magic by putting it everywhere. And everyone could feel it, all the time!
