One sunny day, while playing in her backyard, Nina stumbled upon something extraordinary. Buried beneath the oak tree, she found a small clay pot.

That night, as Nina slept soundly, something magical happened. A tiny, shimmering fairy fluttered in through the window.

She continued to save her coins, but she also started sharing some with those in need. She helped her friend buy a new book and even donated some to a local charity.
