About this listen
How can a flower be unusual? What makes it so different from other flowers? Aisha takes us on a fascinating journey of how kindness, faith, compassion, and generosity allow the most unusual beings to become friends. Her imagination of portraying simple everyday objects into emotional characters will delight the young and old alike.
We are so preoccupied with today's fast-paced life that we frequently ignore the pains and problems of those close to us, the three other short stories in this book acknowledge such issues and how they can be resolved through simple courtesy and basic humanity. Aisha has iterated these actions in a manner most children can relate to easily.
- "Take Flight": A little girl's disappointment turns into a pleasant surprise.
- "The Bridge": Troubles are not permanent. That is what a bridge discovers after being bullied continuously.
- "The Shark": A little help from friends and a simple prayer overcome the constant threats of a dangerous predator.
These whimsical stories bring humor and charm into every child’s life.
Aisha Bakhrani is a 13-year-old sweet girl whose imagination knows no bounds. She writes and narrates her thoughts in the most creative ways which always leave listeners with smiles on their faces in anticipation of what is coming next. Aisha has written many short stories, which are being compiled into books and audiobooks. The first in the series is The Unusual Flower and Other Short Stories for Children with several others to follow.

Mindfulness and meditation have helped millions to get to sleep with much more ease than ever before. Something that many parents haven’t considered is how these things can help their little ones to wind down, get ready for sleep, kick nightmares from their headspace, and settle in for a long night’s rest. Teaching meditation to your children might seem like an impossible feat, but many have found that their children are remarkably receptive to it when it’s presented like a story.

It’s an adventure story about a young Hero who comes from a far country to win back his lost treasure. It’s a love story about a brave Prince who leaves his palace, his throne - everything - to rescue the one he loves. The best thing about this Story is - it’s true! And at the center of the story, there is a baby. The child upon whom everything would depend. All the stars, mountains, oceans, and galaxies were nothing compared to how much God loved his children. He would move Heaven and Earth to be near them. Always.

According to the Australian government’s website, at the time of first contact with Europeans, there were some 500 distinct Indigenous nations, speaking different languages and following their own religious and cultural practices. As with all human societies, that of the Indigenous Australians is abounding in stories. Stories of how the world came to be the way it is, stories of heroism and perfidy, stories about animals and birds, and stories about love and hate all have parts to play in the wide array of myths, legends, and tales created by Indigenous Australians.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 26
According to the Australian government’s website, at the time of first contact with Europeans, there were some 500 distinct Indigenous nations, speaking different languages and following their own religious and cultural practices. As with all human societies, that of the Indigenous Australians is abounding in stories. Stories of how the world came to be the way it is, stories of heroism and perfidy, stories about animals and birds, and stories about love and hate all have parts to play in the wide array of myths, legends, and tales created by Indigenous Australians.
