Here, the circle begins. You’ll hear children breaking silences that once swallowed them whole, and watch as trust is built word by word, hug by hug. These aren’t simple stories—they’re confessions spoken aloud for the first time, secrets placed gently into a circle that refuses to let anyone vanish. The reading carries you through moments where belonging is fought for, not given. A girl admits her parents never told her she was loved. A boy answers with proof that love is action, not silence. Another child collapses from carrying too much weight at home, and instead of turning away, the circle tightens to hold him. Each chapter pulls the thread tighter, weaving together children who refuse to leave one another unseen. This isn’t a glimpse—it’s the full unfolding of the journey’s beginning. By the last page of Chapter 10, you’re not just curious about what comes next—you’re already inside the circle, waiting to see how far love can carry them.
