Create Your Own Free Story ✨Lily was a thoughtful child with tan skin and straight black hair who lived near a very breezy hill. Every afternoon, she sat on the soft grass and watched the colorful kites dance high in the sky. She knew the wind came from far-away places like snowy mountains and sandy deserts. Lily wished more than anything that she could understand the rustling sounds the breeze made. To her, it sounded like a secret language that held wonderful stories from across the whole world.
"Wind is simply moving air caused by different temperatures across the planet."

One sunny morning, a tiny sapphire-blue bird with long silver tail feathers named Pip landed on the shoulder of Lily. Pip chirped a bright melody that sounded almost like a real song. Lily told Pip about her dream of hearing the secrets the wind carried from distant lands. Pip fluttered his wings and nodded his head as if he understood exactly what Lily meant. Pip began to fly toward the dark green Whispering Woods, gesturing for Lily to follow him.
"Many birds use the wind to help them glide through the air so they do not get tired."

Lily and Pip reached a giant, ancient tree with silver leaves that shimmered like tiny mirrors. This was the Great Whispering Willow, where the wind liked to rest after long journeys. The air around the tree was very noisy, whirring and whistling in a confused jumble of loud sounds. Lily tried her hardest to listen, but the wind was moving much too fast for her to catch a single word. She felt a little bit sad because the stories were right there, yet Lily still could not understand them.
"Willow trees have very flexible branches so they can bend in the wind without breaking."

Pip saw that Lily was struggling and let out a soft, rhythmic whistle that sounded like a sweet lullaby. Pip nudged the hand of Lily and chirped, encouraging Lily to try making the same peaceful sound. Lily took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and began to whistle a gentle, low tune into the air. As the melody of Lily drifted toward the branches, the wild gusts around the willow tree began to slow down and soften. The loud whirring turned into a gentle hum that matched the steady beat of the heart of Lily.
"Whistling is a sound made by controlling the air that passes through your lips."

Suddenly, the soft hum turned into clear, beautiful pictures in the mind of Lily. She heard a story about a golden beach where sea turtles played in the waves under a giant moon. Then, she heard a tale about a brave mountain goat who climbed to the very top of a purple peak. Lily smiled widely, finally understanding that the wind spoke to those who knew how to be still and listen. Now, every time the breeze tickled the ears of Lily, she knew she was about to hear a brand new adventure.
"Wind helps the planet by carrying seeds from plants to new places so they can grow."
