The Laughing Mountain
Ages 4–5 9 min
Once upon a time, high in the beautiful Andes mountains of Peru, there lived a village filled with the most wonderful sounds. Children laughed as they played in the cobblestone streets. Mothers sang sweet lullabies while they wove colorful blankets. Fathers told funny stories that made everyone giggle. The whole village sparkled with joy, like sunshine dancing on water. Every morning, the villagers would wake up with big smiles on their faces, ready to share happiness with their neighbors. It was the happiest place in all the world, where laughter echoed through the valley like the most beautiful music you have ever heard.
