these are good and well meaning stories. Unfortunately your English needs some work. My 7 year old daughter (who loves listening to your stories) often comments on mistakes she spots in your grammar. hopefully getting someone to review the script should help with this? I hope you don't mind the feedback. please keep up the good work. 🙏
