"Can you hear that?" whispered Eddy, clutching the edge of a crinkly, glowing piece of parchment.
Anna squinted at him from under her sunhat. "Hear what?"
Eddy didn’t answer right away. He pressed his ear to the map and gasped. A soft hum filled the air—like wind through bamboo flutes.
“It’s… singing,” he said.
“Eddy, look!” shouted Anna, pointing at the sky. “It’s… gray!”
Eddy squinted up from his breakfast toast and blinked in surprise. The sky was indeed a dull shade of misty gray—not stormy or cloudy, just... empty.
Then they heard Lily X scream from outside. “My flowers! They’re all white!”
"Zap!" Eddy jumped back as a spark flew from the tangled mess of wires in his hands. "That was close," he said, brushing soot off his overalls. His workshop—a cozy shed behind his house filled with blinking gadgets and humming machines—was buzzing with excitement.
"I think it's working!" said Anna, peering over his shoulder. She was Eddy’s best friend and always helped him test his wildest ideas.
Once upon a time, in the sleepy seaside town of Penang, there lived a curious 12-year-old named Eddy. He had wild chestnut hair that never quite stayed brushed, a pair of mismatched socks (on purpose), and a head full of dreams about places he’d never seen. Eddy loved adventure stories—tales of daring pirates, brave explorers, and magical lands hidden just beyond the horizon. But real adventures...

Here, ten-year-old Lily and her younger brother, Eddy, spent their summer days exploring, their...

But there was a hitch: Eddy’s nerves always got the better of him, making his feet tangle like jump ropes.
In the smoggy city of Ironclad, where towering steel walls blocked out the sun and drones buzzed like angry bees, eleven-year-old Nana lived in a cramped attic with her little brother, Eddy. The city was ruled by the High Council, a group of stern grown-ups who demanded everyone follow their rules. No laughing too loud, no running in the streets, and definitely no dreaming of a world beyond the...
In the heart of Gurney Bay, where cracked sidewalks shimmered with summer heat and old brick buildings whispered secrets, there was a legend among the kids: the Lost Skate Park. Tucked behind a tangle of ivy and forgotten alleys, it was said to be a place where the concrete curved like waves, where ramps glowed faintly under moonlight, and where the air hummed with magic. Nobody knew if it was...
In the sleepy village of Batu Ferringhi, where wildflowers danced in the breeze and the river sang lullabies, lived two best friends: Anna, a curious girl with a freckled nose and a knack for solving riddles, and Pye, a cheerful boy who loved sketching maps and dreaming of treasure. They were inseparable, always exploring the woods, chasing mysteries, and giggling over secrets only they...
In the quirky little town of Georgetown, where the moon always seemed to wink at the cobblestone streets, lived a ten-year-old girl named Zoe. She had a mop of curly red hair that bounced like springs, freckles that danced across her nose, and a giggle that could make even the grumpiest gargoyle smile. Zoe loved baking more than anything—her kitchen was her kingdom, where she whipped up cookies...
