Who is in the story?
Read the story Easy English
In a vast valley near a violet village stood a volcano named Vivi. Vivi was very gentle and quiet. She had a warm glow inside that softly lit the sky at night. Unlike other volcanoes, Vivi did not want to be loud or violent. Some villagers felt worried about her. They thought volcanoes were dangerous and wild, so they feared Vivi might erupt. Vivi felt sad and misunderstood because she wanted to be kind.
One windy evening, a very cold wave arrived in the valley. The freezing air turned the ground hard, and strong winds blew out the fires. The villagers felt weak, cold, and worried because their homes could not stay warm. Vivi watched the village with care and wanted to help. She had a thoughtful idea. Slowly, Vivi sent out a soft and gentle warmth instead of a loud eruption.
Her gentle heat traveled through the valley and warmed the frozen ground. Soon, the homes felt cozy, and the villagers felt safe again. They gathered near Vivi and smiled with surprise. The villagers thanked Vivi and told her she was valuable and kind. Vivi felt peaceful and happy. From that day on, the villagers visited Vivi, and she became a special part of the valley.
