Mu Yi is a five-year-old boy, and he had cancer (癌症) when he was only three. He made many New Year’s wishes. There were 50 ones such as a movie, a beach trip and a day in school.

The boy’s wishes touched the hearts of people across the country. Many called the father to help the boy realize his wishes. One of the boy’s wishes is to meet Ultraman (奥特曼). With the help of the organization Childream, the official Ultraman will visit the boy when he feels comfortable.

Mu Yi is one of the children who got help from Childream. This organization helps children and teenagers (aged 2—18) who have cancer realize their dreams. Xu Wenjun gave up his job and set up Childream in Hangzhou, Zhejiang with his friend in 2016.

The Childream and teenagers have different wishes. Some like Mu Yi want to meet their favorite hero, some want to experience a day as a police officer, firefighter or racing car driver, and some want to give a concert. Childream has volunteers across the country. They try their best to help those children realize their wishes.

“These wishes are just like light, which can drive out the darkness. Realizing the wishes can help these children to feel strong and see hope and love in their life,” Xu says.

Tilly Smith, the 11-year-old British girl, who was called as “Angel of the Beach”, saved a hundred tourists from a Thai beach hit by last year’s tsunami (海啸). She has been named Child of the Year by readers of a French children’s newspaper.

Tilly had studied tsunamis with her geography teacher shortly before flying to Thailand. She went there for a holiday with her parents and younger sister last year. As she watched the waves suddenly begin to move back, and the sea was bubbling (冒泡), she warned her mother that a tsunami was coming. Then Mrs Smith and her husband warned other holidaymakers and hotel staff. Hundreds of people were cleared from the beach. Tilly said, “It’s really good, just to know about tsunamis or any natural disasters. I’m very glad that I was able to say on the beach that a tsunami was coming. And I’m glad that they listened to me.” She had earlier said that the state of the sea, which was “bubbling” was “exactly the same as in her geography lesson”.

She is now really popular among French children. Her picture appears on the front page of Mon Quotidien, which is read by 10 to 14-year-olds.

Once there was a rich baker（面包师）. He called the poorest children in town to his store and gave one loaf (条) of bread to each of them and told them to come back every day for bread.

Rather than being thankful to the baker’s kindness, many of the children fought about who would get the largest loaf. They were not pleased with their present poor life and just thought about themselves.

However, there was one little girl in the crowd (人群) who was different from others. Day after day, patiently, she waited for the others to stop fighting, and she took the smallest loaf. Then, she thanked the baker and shared it with her family.

One day, while slicing （将……切片）the bread, her mother found several silver coins inside the loaf. Quite surprised, she showed her daughter what she had discovered in the bread.

So, the next day, the children went back to the store. The little girl also returned. She showed the silver coins to the baker and said,   “Sir, we found the money inside the loaf of bread that you gave to us. You must have accidentally dropped the coins while you were baking the loaf.”

“I didn’t make a mistake. These are yours to keep, as a prize for your patience and honesty, ” said the baker.
