Short Story Summary:
“In a town of magical flowers, Little Mouse feels left out without any magic in his garden. When he was about to give up, someone offered him a little help. Will Little Mouse eventually discover the magic he's searching for?”
Little Mouse and the Magical Fruit has been crafted with children aged 4-8 in mind. It's a delightful tale that follows the journey of self-discovery, where embracing one's distinctiveness and honing one's skills lead to remarkable transformations. The book comprises a total of 40 engaging pages.
Throughout my journey of growth, I've often felt like a less confident child, yet I've always yearned to be "different." I want to convey to readers that there's no need to feel inferior or disheartened due to lacking the talents others possess. In reality, everyone's strengths are unique. Once you discover the avenue where your strengths can shine, you have the opportunity to radiate brilliantly.
故事大綱：
在一個擁有神奇花朵的小鎮裡，小老鼠覺得自己的花園缺少了一點魔法、和別人的花園好不一樣。當他正要放棄的時候，有人向他伸出了援手。小老鼠最終能夠發現他一直在尋找的魔法嗎？
《小老鼠的神奇果實》是一本獻給兒童的繪本，但我希望大人閱讀此書時也能從中獲得力量。這是一則關於探索自我的故事，在主角小老鼠探索的過程中，讀者亦能夠了解：若能接受自己的獨特性並培養適合自己的技能，將會有非常不一樣的發現！
全書共有40頁。
故事創作背景：
在我自己的成長過程中，我曾經陷入較沒有自信、容易和他人比較的狀態，覺得自己的成果總是比不上其他人。不過後來我漸漸意識到，大家都是獨特的個體，每一個人都有屬於自己的舞台。
透過小老鼠的故事，讀者可以發現：即使自己和其他人的才能看似不一樣，也不需要為此感到沮喪。因為每一個人的才能都是獨特的，只要你了解自己最擅長及最喜歡的事是什麼，並且摸索出了最適合讓自己的特長發光發熱的管道，你就有機會成為一顆耀眼的星星。
