The Wandering Statue | An illustrated children’s story about a statue who grows tired of standing still in one place. By day, he listens quietly to the stories of people gathered around his pedestal, but by night, he puts on a straw hat and an old coat and secretly wanders the city streets. Lonely and longing to be human, he sets out to catch a golden fish to make his wish come true, but the city river is too polluted. A wise stork leads him to a clean stream in a nearby village, where he catches the fish and uses his wish not for himself, but to heal the city river. Instead of returning, he chooses to remain a statue by the peaceful stream, exploring the wild nature under the stars.

Take a peek into this gentle, magical tale and follow the quiet footsteps of a statue with a heart.
