Once upon a time, in the freezing cold continent of Antarctica, a girl called Sophie asked her parents if she could go to Thailand.
They replied, “No! You don’t even know how to swim. You will get sunburned.”
Sophie was disappointed, but she went to bed.
The next day, Sophie saw a crumpled map on the floor. Sophie was curious and decided to follow it. When she got to the end of the map, she found herself standing next to a shiny pink fairy penguin and a unicorn with a sparkly golden horn.
The fairy penguin said, “My name is Waddlee, and the unicorn is called Gracee.”
Waddlee said, “We will make your wish come true, but you must help us find a magical silver key. Gracee will take us there.”
“OK!” Sophie shouted.
Waddlee turned Gracee’s tail into a red velvet carriage with golden walls.
Waddlee added, “Under the carriage is a treasure chest. You have to find the missing key.”
Sophie climbed into the carriage, and they were off. Gracee was as fast as a rocket. In five seconds, they were in Thailand.
As Sophie climbed off, Gracee reminded her, “You have 20 minutes, and then I will come to pick you up.”
In no time, Sophie found the key, and Gracee came back.
Sophie shouted, “I found the key! But I didn’t have time to enjoy my holiday. Could I have more time?”
So Wadlee cast a spell. But the spell was wrong. Instead of making the holiday longer, the magic took them somewhere else.
“Where am I?” Sophie exclaimed.
“You are in Vietnam,” Waddlee answered. “There are also beaches here.”
“Yay!” shouted Sophie excitedly.
Then, they opened the chest, and Sophie saw sunscreen, inflatable armbands and a water bottle inside.
Sophie cried, “Let’s go to the beach.”
“OK,” Waddlee said.
And they happily headed to the water.
