But there was one thing Rithwika wished for the most. “I wish Grandma Smitha was here too,” she said with a little sigh. Grandma Smitha lived far away in India, and Rithwika missed her so much. Just then, another DING DONG! This time, it was a big box wrapped in a pink ribbon! It had a note that said: "For My Sweet Kitten Rithwika, with love, Grandma Smitha." Excited, she quickly opened the box. Inside was a soft, fluffy toy kitten with bright blue eyes and a tiny pink nose. “Meow!” It made a little sound when she hugged it. “Oh wow! It’s so cute! Thank you, Grandma!” Rithwika squealed with joy. Her parents turned on the laptop, and Grandma Smitha appeared on the screen, smiling warmly. “Happy Birthday, my dear Rithwika!” she said. “Do you like your gift?” “I love it, Grandma! I will name her Meow-Meow!” Rithwika giggled, cuddling the toy. Her friend clapped and said, “Meow-Meow is so cute! Soon, it was time for the birthday cake. It was the most beautiful cake Rithwika had ever seen—covered in tiny, playful kittens made of frosting! She clapped her hands happily and blew out the candles while everyone cheered. After cake and presents, Rithwika and her friend played with Meow-Meow. Even though Grandma Smitha was far away, she felt close to Rithwika through their video call. As the day ended, Rithwika hugged her kitten toy tightly and whispered, “This was the best birthday ever!” And with a happy heart, she fell asleep.

A book about a girl that lives in New York City and has an adventure with the Wall Street bull when he comes to life

Deep in the fog-draped mountains, where the wind howls like a pack of wolves and the pines whisper ancient secrets, there was a cliff known as Elk’s End. The cliff was steep and sheer, plunging down into a misty abyss. But people didn’t come for the view—they came for the elk. This was no ordinary elk. Larger than any they'd ever seen, his antlers twisted like tree branches against the sky, and his coat shimmered with an ethereal glow that sparkled faintly in the moonlight. But the elk appeared only on the darkest nights, his hooves leaving no prints, his eyes gleaming with an unsettling intelligence. Legend had it that the elk was the spirit of an old mountain guide who had met a tragic end in a blizzard on that very cliffside. Now he wandered back and forth along the ledge, luring curious onlookers with his haunting, majestic form. People came from towns far and wide, enchanted by rumors of the ghostly elk who waited on the cliff’s edge. They’d drive up the road, and stare, mouths agape, hypnotized by the strange and beautiful creature. But as they stared, he would give a tilt of his head, like he was inviting them closer… just a little closer… And without realizing, they'd creep forward, caught in his gaze as if bewitched. The road sloped down, gravity pulling them toward that dizzying edge as if guided by an invisible hand. Mesmerized by the elk, they'd drift until there was nothing left beneath them but empty air. Some say that as they fell, they’d hear a low, mournful bellow echoing through the chasm, as if the elk was bidding them farewell. They never saw the bottom of Elk’s End. And if you go out there on a cold, clear night, you might just see the elk yourself—his great, spectral form glowing softly, waiting to lead one more soul down into the misty abyss.

Meanwhile, outside, pigeons and seagulls are in a turf war over a gluten-free hot dog bun, adding to the mayhem. The Bang Bang Godparents Lounging in the VIP section, the Bang Bang Club admits they saw someone sneaking away with the Glitter Ball but were too busy in a glow stick limbo contest to react.
