Story Synopsis
Animals donât use human sentences, but they still âtalkâ to each other every day. This story explores the many quiet languages of nature in an easy, bedtime-friendly way. It begins with sounds: birds sing, frogs croak, and wolves howl. Sometimes sounds are invitations, sometimes warnings. Then it introduces scent messagesâlike a tiny invisible note left on the ground.

Miluna keeps everything gentle and curious, helping children notice the world with kindness. Curiosity stories like this build empathy for animals and show that reading can teach us to âlistenâ in many ways.
