a boy named George. he loved drawing the stars on his notebook, and listening to his grandma’s stories. one day, everything changed—his grandma, who always smelled of lavender and gave the warmest hugs, passed away. At first, George didn’t understand. She had always been there. How could she just be… gone? Sometimes, he felt sad, and other times, he felt angry—angry that she left, angry that no one could fix it. He wanted to talk to her, but she wasn’t there. And worst of all, some days he felt okay, and that made him feel guilty. At school, things were different too. Gorges's best friend, Mia, didn’t know what to say, so she said nothing at all. His teacher, Mr. Potter, noticed that George didn’t want to play as much, and sometimes, he just stared at his notebook, drawing nothing. One day, Mr. Potter sat beside George during lunch. “I lost my grandfather when I was your age,” he said gently. “It hurt a lot. I missed him every day. But then I found a way to keep him close.” George looked up. “How?” “By remembering,” Mr. Potter said. “By talking about him, writing about him, even drawing pictures. And I let myself feel however I needed to feel.” George thought about that. That night, he picked up his notebook and drew a picture of his grandma, with her warm smile and twinkling eyes. He wrote down his favorite story she used to tell him. And when he missed her, he whispered to the stars, just like she had told him to do .things started to change. Some days were still hard. Some days, he felt okay. But he learned that it was alright to feel both. At school, he told Mia about his grandma, and she listened. At home, he made a memory box with his mum, filling it with lavender sachets, old photographs, and little notes. And every night, when George looked up at the sky, he remembered that the people we love never really leave us—they just whisper from the stars.

Page 2 Monkey’s my buddy, my partner in play. We laugh, we dream, we plan our day! “What should we do, Monkey?” I say. He’s ready for fun in every way. Page 3 The rug’s a jungle, green and wide. “Hold my hand, Monkey, stay by my side!” We swing through trees and leap so high. “Look out! A crocodile!” I cry. Page 4 By afternoon, we’re pirates bold, Sailing seas of blankets rolled. “Treasure ahead!” I shout with glee. Monkey steers us across the sea! Page 5 When it rains, we build a fort, A cozy, secret blanket sort. “No grown-ups allowed!” I say with pride. Monkey nods—it’s safe inside. Page 6 When I’m sad, he’s always near. He hugs me tight and wipes my tears. “You’re the best,” I say, feeling okay. Monkey makes the clouds go away. Page 7 At night, we look at the stars so far. “Do you think there’s a Monkey Star?” Monkey tilts his head just so, As if to say, “Of course, you know!” Page 8 I tell him secrets, big and small. “Do you love me, Monkey, most of all?” He hugs me close and holds me tight, Filling my heart with love and light. Page 9 “Monkey’s not real,” Mommy might say. But I know better—he’s real my way. She smiles and tucks us safe in bed. “You’re lucky to have him,” she said. Page 10 As I dream, we swing and soar, Through jungles, seas, and so much more. “I love you, Monkey,” I softly coo. And in his hug, I feel it, too. Page 11 Morning comes, soft and bright, Monkey’s here—my heart feels light. Page 12 With a hug, we start the day, Best friends forever, come what may.

1. Introduction Benny is excited about his school’s Science Fair and wants to create something magical. He rushes to Professor Pippin for advice. 2. Problem/Conflict Professor Pippin explains the difference between mixtures (like salad) and solutions (like lemonade). However, the Mischievous Molecule appears and starts mixing things up, confusing Benny with tricky experiments that don’t turn out right! 3. Journey of Discovery With the help of Professor Pippin, Benny embarks on a journey through the lab, encountering different ingredients and learning how they interact. He conducts fun experiments, like combining oil and water, to see what happens and learns why they don’t mix (introduction to density and solubility). 4. Climax The Mischievous Molecule challenges Benny to a final experiment: can he create a perfect solution that doesn’t get messed up? Benny gathers all he’s learned and confidently takes on the challenge. 5. Resolution Benny successfully creates a beautiful, colorful solution by mixing the right amounts of solute and solvent. The Mischievous Molecule is impressed and decides to help instead of hinder. They showcase their final creation at the Science Fair, and Benny wins a special award for creativity and understanding of chemistry! 6. Conclusion Benny learns that science is about experimentation and learning from mistakes. He looks forward to more adventures in chemistry with his new friend, the Mischievous Molecule.
