Chapter 1: What is the story about Jayna and the Dream Berries?
The scent lifted her into the air, like she was in a cartoon. Gently, she floated and followed the trail that the tasty smell left behind. she drifted downstairs. Her family was gathered at the table, and they had waited for her. They watched in awe as she levitated down the steps and over to the table. They asked her how she did and Jaina said that she would show them after breakfast.
As she ate, she realized the food reminded her of the berries she had tasted the previous morning. After they were finished eating, as if by magic, the plates vanished. There would be no washing the dishes in this dream. Now it was time for flying, Jaina told her family. They were all able to do it in this dream. They defied gravity with ease.
And one by one, each member of the family floated around the kitchen. I think we should take this outside, Jaina said with a smile. She slid open the door to the backyard and flew outside. The world was different out there. The whole neighborhood was gone. It was just Jaina's house and the yard floating in space. A sea of stars streaked across the sky.
She turned to her family and proposed a race. Last one to the moon is a rotten egg, she said, giggling. They all laughed and sped after her. But they couldn't beat Jaina. It was her dream after all, wasn't it? She was almost at the moon now. It glowed a pale silver. She always thought it would be cold, but as she got closer, she could feel a lovely warmth coming from it.
She was about to land on the moon when her eyes slowly opened. The sleep drifted from her, and she was awake in her own bed. The soft mattress cradled her, and her head rested comfortably on her pillow. What a strange dream, she thought to herself. That's when she smelled it. blueberry waffles. Someone was making them downstairs. Jaina walked down towards the kitchen.
Just like in her dream, everyone was gathered around the breakfast table. They were all well rested, with joyous smiles on their faces. A wonderfully stacked plate of blueberry waffles was placed before her. She clapped in excitement. Maybe after this, we can all race to the moon, Jaina joked. That's when everyone stopped. The family turned to Jaina, and they realized something together.
They had all had the same dream. Not just a similar one. The details were exact. They had dreamt it together. But how was that possible? The berries, Jaina thought. It must have been those berries. She ran to the fridge and pulled them out. They were still just as fresh as they had been yesterday. She took one and bit into it. It tasted familiar. like a morning spent with her loved ones.
Like her hair flying as she soared among the stars and touched down on the moon. It tasted like a dream. Dream berries, she said out loud. These are dream berries. Her family laughed in the way adults often do when kids say something fantastical. Sweetie, the dreams were just a coincidence, her mother said. But the berries were delicious, so they all helped themselves to a few more.
After breakfast, Jaina checked on her garden. The vine was still there, thick and green, but there was no fruit dangling from it that morning. The soft glow it had in the sunlight had vanished. Had she only imagined it? The remainder of her Sunday was restful. She spent the afternoon drawing her dream with her favorite colored pencils. She drew her backyard floating in space.

Chapter 2: How did Jaina begin her gardening journey?
In the evening, she sat on her front porch, feeling the chilly night air starting to arrive She was wearing a cozy, light sweater and watched the sunset, admiring its glow. The colors were so much like those of her dream berries. She gazed at the evening sky and watched as the last rays of light vanished over the horizon. Jaina smiled to herself. It was bedtime.
She went upstairs and changed into her pajamas. She brushed her teeth and crawled into bed. Then, Jaina picked up the book next to the lamp on her bedside table and started to read. She was only a few sentences in when her eyelids felt heavy. Maybe it was time to go to sleep after all. She could pick up where she left off tomorrow night.
As she reached for the cord to switch off the lamp on the bedside table, she blinked. And as she opened her eyes, the lamp was gone. In its place was a small glowing orb about the size of a baseball. She held it in her hands and gazed into it. The surface of the orb was moving around. A swirl of deep yellows and oranges crashed around it like tiny waves of fire. Oh my goodness, Jaina thought.
This wasn't just any orb. It was the sun. That's when she realized she wasn't in her bedroom any longer. She was floating in outer space. And she wasn't alone. She turned around to see her family flying all over the solar system. They were dancing among the stars, skipping stones in the asteroid belt, and tossing around the rings of planets. But most importantly, they were all together.
When she awoke the next morning, Jaina had an amazing idea. She took some of those dream berries and saved a few for her and her family. The rest she put in a little container to bring to her classmates. At lunch, she handed them out to the other kids. They all commented on the beautiful color of the berries, and were amazed that she was able to grow something so pretty.
The taste was also popular. Even the kids who were picky eaters were fans of the little fruit. After school, when Jaina got home, she checked on her plant. The vine was still that lovely shade of green as before. The soil was still nice and moist, and there were no little critters picking at her plant. But sadly, the plant appeared to have grown the last of its dream berries.
She should have been sad, but instead, Jaina was just grateful. Grateful that she got to share the last of her berries with everyone she could. And to celebrate, she had big ideas for tonight's dream. Jaina went to bed early that night. She wanted to get a head start on her special plans. She washed her face and brushed her teeth. Afterwards, she put on her comfiest pajamas and tucked herself in.
Then, she closed her eyes. It was a beautiful pre-dawn morning in her dream. Jaina floated from her bedroom window down to her backyard. While normally the yard was perfect for her needs as an amateur gardener, today it just wouldn't do. So, with a wave of her hand, she transformed it The small plot changed into a massive piece of land.
This was no vegetable patch, but a real farm with a field stretching back further than she could see. Fertile earth covered everything. And so, Jaina got to work. she could have waved her hands again. It was, after all, her dream. But she wanted to do this part by hand. Jaina walked through the farm. After a while, she bent down and made a little hole in the mud.

Chapter 3: What magical item did Jaina receive from the Tooth Fairy?
Next were her classmates, who were incredibly excited to be a part of her dream. Jaina thanked them all for coming. She was so happy that everyone who had come was now part of creating something beautiful. The sharing was the best part, especially with the people she loved the most. With happy smiles, everyone began to eat. And afterwards, they flew.
She taught her classmates how to fly, to imagine the extraordinary, and make it real. It was a good dream. Jaina awoke the next morning excited. She couldn't wait to talk to her friends at school and hear about how much they had enjoyed last night's adventure. She got out of bed and put on her slippers. Then she watched the sunrise from her window.
When the sun was higher in the sky, she went downstairs and prepared to water her garden. She grabbed the garden hose and stepped out onto the dewy grass. That's when she saw it, her plant. there was something wrapped up in its vine. She reached down and gently moved the leaves to one side. There, she found another large black and silver melon. And she knew that at the center of the fruit
