**Xiaomeng and Her Dream Tree** 0
 
In a quiet village, there lived a little girl full of dreams named Xiaomeng. In Xiaomeng's backyard stood an ancient tree, known to everyone as the "Dream Tree." According to legend, this tree possessed magical powers that could grant wishes hung on its branches. 0
 
Xiaomeng often shared her dreams and secrets with her good friend Xiaoya under the Dream Tree. They believed that if they wrote their wishes on small pieces of paper and tied them to the tree with ribbons, those wishes would gradually come true. 0
 
One day, Xiaomeng wrote in her diary: "I wish to help more people and make them happy." She carefully rolled up the note and tied it to a branch of the Dream Tree with her favorite blue ribbon. 0
 
Seeing Xiaomeng's action, Xiaoya walked over and asked, "Xiaomeng, what wish did you make?" 0
 
Xiaomeng smiled and replied, "I wish to help others, just like the Dream Tree brings happiness." 0
 
Touched by Xiaomeng's kindness, Xiaoya decided to make a wish too: "I hope our friendship remains evergreen like the Dream Tree." 0
 
As time passed, Xiaomeng and Xiaoya did many things to help others. They helped their neighbor clean her yard, taught younger siblings how to draw, and organized story sessions at the village library corner to share wonderful tales with the village children. 0
 
Whenever they did good deeds, the Dream Tree seemed to flourish even more. In spring, it bloomed with pink flowers; in summer, it provided cool shade; in autumn, its leaves turned golden; and in winter, it donned a silver-white coat. 0
 
One night, lying under the Dream Tree while gazing at the starry sky, Xiaomeng said, "Xiaoya, I feel that our friendship has gone through the seasons like this tree but remains resilient." 0
 
Xiaoya held Xiaomeng's hand tightly: "Yes, Xiaomeng, our friendship is like this tree; no matter how strong the wind or rain is, it will always be here." 0
 
At that moment, a gentle breeze blew by, and a piece of paper from the Dream Tree floated down into Xiaomeng's hands. She opened it to find written: "May Xiaomeng and Xiaoya's friendship flourish like the Dream Tree forever." 0
 
The two children exchanged surprised glances and smiles, knowing this was the Dream Tree's response and blessing for their friendship. 0
 
From then on, Xiaomeng and Xiaoya continued to make new wishes under the Dream Tree. Their friendship grew strong like the tree itself, becoming a beautiful sight in the village. 0
 
**Little Jie and Yoyo's Starry Adventure** 0
 
In a quiet little town lived a curious boy named Little Jie who was fascinated by the night sky. He owned a telescope and often gazed at the stars, dreaming of exploring the secrets of distant planets. 0
 
One night, new neighbors moved into town—a little girl named Yoyo. Yoyo had bright sparkling eyes and shared Little Jie's curiosity about the unknown. 0
 
"Hello, I'm Little Jie. Can I take you stargazing?" Little Jie mustered his courage to invite Yoyo. 0
 
Yoyo smiled happily and nodded: "Of course! I've always wanted to see the stars up close!" 0
 
As night fell, the two children sat on the grass. Little Jie skillfully set up his telescope and adjusted its angle. Yoyo leaned in closer with excitement shining in her eyes. 0
 
"Look! That’s Polaris; it's at the tip of Ursa Major's tail," Little Jie pointed at the brightest star in the sky. 0
 
Yoyo exclaimed: "It's so bright! It seems like it's guiding us." 0
 
 
They observed the stars while sharing legends and stories about them. Just then, a shooting star streaked across the night sky, illuminating their surprised faces. 0
"Make a wish!" Xiao Jie exclaimed excitedly. 0
The two children closed their eyes tightly, clasped their hands together, and made their wishes. When they opened their eyes, they smiled at each other, knowing they had become lifelong friends. 0
"I hope we can always watch the stars like this," Xiao Jie said. 0
Yoyo held Xiao Jie's hand and replied, "Me too. Our friendship is as eternal as the starry sky." 0
From that day on, whenever the night was clear, Xiao Jie and Yoyo would gaze at the stars together, sharing their dreams and joys. They knew that the starry sky witnessed their friendship, and their wishes, like those twinkling stars, would forever illuminate each other's hearts. 0
 
**Xiaoyue and Her Magical Paintbrush** 0
In a small town surrounded by greenery lived a little girl named Xiaoyue, who loved to paint. Xiaoyue had a sunlit room filled with her artwork, but she always felt her creations were not good enough. 0
Xiaoyue's grandmother was a kind old woman who understood her worries. One day, she gifted Xiaoyue an ancient paintbrush, intricately carved with patterns on its handle and soft yet flexible at the tip. 0
"Xiaoyue, this paintbrush is a treasure of our family; it has magical powers," her grandmother said mysteriously. 0
Curious, Xiaoyue took the paintbrush and felt a warm sensation spread throughout her body. She decided to use it to create a new painting. Xiaoyue closed her eyes and imagined an ideal friend—a gentle girl with golden long hair and speaking eyes. 0
When she opened her eyes, she was astonished to find that the girl on the paper had come to life, standing in her room and smiling at her. 0
"You... you came out of the painting?" Xiaoyue stammered. 0
"Yes, my name is Lily; you created me," the girl replied gently. 0
Xiaoyue and Lily quickly became good friends. Lily taught Xiaoyue how to appreciate her own work, telling her that every painting is unique, just like every friend. 0
One day, during an art competition at school, Xiaoyue felt insecure and feared that others wouldn't recognize her work. Lily encouraged her by saying, "Xiaoyue, your artwork is the best because you put your heart into it. Remember, art is an expression from within." 0
Gathering her courage, Xiaoyue participated in the competition, and her painting received unanimous praise from teachers and classmates. She joyfully ran home to share the good news with Lily. 0
"I did it, Lily! I learned to be confident because of you!" Xiaoyue exclaimed excitedly. 0
Lily smiled and said, "Xiaoyue, it’s your talent and courage that brought you success; I am proud of you." 0
From that day on, Xiaoyue became more confident, and her paintings became more vivid and full of life. She realized that no matter whether her paintbrush was magical or not, what mattered most was her love for painting and recognition of her self-worth. 0
