The Magpie Who Kept Everything Shiny
Picas rooftop nest overflowed with buttons and coins and bright bits of foil — but up there among all her treasure, she was always alone and cold. A gentle bedtime story about a little magpie who hoarded every shiny thing, and the shy sparrow who showed her that one gift given away is worth more than a whole glittering pile. For every little one learning to share.

Pica collected every shiny thing she found. Buttons and coins and bright bits of foil. Her rooftop nest overflowed with glittering treasure.
But up there, Pica was always alone. She guarded her shine and trusted no one. The cold came and the shine gave nothing.
Alone on her treasure, Pica shivered at dusk. A shy sparrow asked for just one bead. Pica clutched tight, then slowly let it go.
Giving it away felt strangely, wonderfully warm. So she shared her shine, piece by piece. And birds came flocking to her rooftop nest.
Now her nest gleams with friends, not treasure.
