My name is Chan Zai. I was born in a walled village of the Tang clan in Lung Yeuk Tau, New Territories, which has a history of over 500 years. I have been filled with curiosity and pride for this familiar land since I was young. I was born in the auspicious old walled village, gazing at the lush green mountains in the distance and the meandering Wutong River, which made me feel the unique charm of this land from an early age. Our ancestors carefully chose this site and built sturdy high walls of blue bricks, which not only defended against pirate attacks but also provided a cool and pleasant shelter from the heat. Although the village gate is narrow, it serves its defensive purpose well, making it difficult for outsiders to invade easily. The ancient well beside the gate is a vital water source for the villagers, ensuring water security when enemies approach. As I walk into the village, the neatly arranged houses are hidden beneath the greenery, exuding an atmosphere of peace and tranquility. The ancestral hall towers into the clouds, with dragon-head wood carvings and crane reliefs inside, showcasing the profound historical and cultural heritage of the Tang clan. During major festivals, the villagers actively participate, ringing the ancient bronze bell in unison, praying for the blessings of our ancestors. I especially love to visit the Tin Hau Temple, where after lighting an incense stick, I listen to the miraculous stories of the Goddess of Heaven and the Earth God, hoping they will bless me with safety and health. The nearby Chong Him Hall is also a favorite of mine, filled with countless memories from my childhood. Every time I step into this familiar historic site, I can't help but feel: I am so fortunate to be born in such a place rich in history and culture. I will study hard to inherit the wisdom of my ancestors, ensuring that this treasured land is passed down through generations and thrives.

The illustrations for Micah and the Night of Divine Hope should be vibrant and engaging for children aged 3–7 while evoking a sense of wonder and warmth to captivate adults. The story begins with a cold, starry night over rolling hills, where Micah, a small shepherd boy, sits wrapped in a woolen cloak alongside his playful lamb, Rufus, whose funny “baah” moments provide lightheartedness. The vastness of the sky emphasizes Micah’s smallness, with a hint of the brighter star to come. As the golden star appears and casts a shimmering path of light across the hills, Micah and Rufus are shown trekking through various landscapes, such as rocky paths and grassy hills, bathed in the star’s glow. The star leads them to a warm and humble stable, illustrated with soft lighting and intimate details. Inside, the baby Jesus glows gently in the manger, surrounded by Mary and Joseph’s awe-filled expressions. Micah kneels hesitantly, offering Rufus, whose curious and comforting presence throughout the journey makes his gift all the more meaningful. The angelic proclamation bursts forth in a double-page spread, with the heavens illuminated by radiant angels singing joyfully, their presence overwhelming and glorious. The final scene captures the tranquility of a sunrise as Micah walks back to his flock, transformed by hope and peace, while Rufus remains curled contentedly at the manger, completing his role as a gift for Jesus. The illustrations should balance humor, warmth, and wonder, ensuring they resonate with both the story’s emotional depth and its lighthearted moments.

Cece was an adventurous 8-year-old with bright, curious eyes that sparkled whenever she talked about her latest discoveries. Living in a small town surrounded by lush forests, she often spent her days exploring the world around her. But Cece never went alone; she had her faithful dog, Ace, by her side. Ace was a golden doodle with a heart of gold, always ready for an adventure and never too far from Cece's side. One sunny morning, Cece and Ace were out playing in the backyard when Cece noticed something unusual—a trail of glowing footprints leading into the woods. The footprints shimmered with a soft, golden light that seemed to beckon her closer. Cece’s heart raced with excitement. She had read about magical creatures in her storybooks, and now it seemed like one might be real! Without a second thought, Cece called to Ace, and together they followed the glowing trail into the woods. The forest, which had always been familiar, now seemed alive with mystery. The trees whispered secrets, and the leaves rustled as if they knew something special was about to happen. As they ventured deeper, the glowing footprints grew brighter, leading them to a hidden grove that Cece had never seen before. In the center of the grove was an ancient oak tree, its trunk twisted with age and its branches stretching high into the sky. At the base of the tree was a small, wooden door, just the right size for Cece to enter. With Ace by her side, Cece pushed open the door and stepped inside. To her amazement, she found herself in a magical land where the sky was always a brilliant shade of twilight, and the stars twinkled like diamonds. The air was filled with the sweet scent of flowers, and the sound of a distant waterfall added to the enchantment. In this magical land, Cece and Ace encountered talking animals, fairies with shimmering wings, and even a wise old owl who told them of a hidden treasure that
