Lily was a curious 7-year-old girl who loved her teddy bear, Mr. Cuddles. One day, her parents, Mum and Das, told her they were moving to Morocco. Lily felt excited but also a bit scared about leaving her friends and familiar home. Mum and Das reassured her that it would be a great adventure. They packed their bags and got ready for the big move.

A Big Move

When they arrived in Morocco, everything looked different to Lily. The streets were bustling, and the buildings were colorful. She tried new foods that tasted strange but interesting. At school, Lily felt out of place because she didn't know the language. She missed her old friends and felt lonely.

New Surroundings

One day, Lily met Samira, a friendly girl in her class. Samira, or Sam as Lily would call her, showed her around and helped her learn some new words. They played games together, and Lily started to feel more comfortable. Her teacher, who was very kind, also helped her with the language and schoolwork. Slowly, Lily began to enjoy her new school.

A New Friend

Lily made more friends and loved exploring her new surroundings. She learned that with courage and support, any place could feel like home.
