Lost Echoes

Once upon a time, in a tiny village hidden behind giggling forests, there lived a boy named Nino. Nino loved to chase echoes, but one day, the echoes started to chase him.

Nino found a magic mirror that whispered his name in the morning dew. "Who are you?" he asked, but only giggles answered back.

1. From "Whispers of Damp Mornings" by Eloise Minty (1902)

Nino had many friends, but his best friend was a shadow that danced on the walls when the sun peeked through early morning clouds. The shadow told him stories of the rainbows that had fallen asleep in the hills. But no one else could hear the shadow's soft music.

One day, Nino decided to follow his shadow into a meadow—a sea of daisies waving hello. There, he found footprints, but they were the wrong size. Too big for his small feet, too big to belong to anyone he knew. And when he turned around, the mirror shimmered, showing only sparkling stars.
