THE BIRDCAGE IN SOUTH AFRICA

The Birdcage is a story about giving and the miracles that lie waiting for us in these kinds of acts. When seven-year-old Dakota decides that the empty birdcage hanging above her bookshelf would be the perfect place to keep all of her important hopes and dreams that she has written down, she gets more than she bargains for. Late one evening, when Dakota is unable to fall asleep, she takes out one of the miniature notes to imagine and help her nod off but wakes instead to find herself inside her dream. Upon realizing this incredible possibility, Dakota begins to share her hopes and wishes with others, until the day she comes to her birdcage and finds she has only one dream left. As she contemplates what to do next, she is interrupted by her little sister Addison who tearfully sobs that she is too afraid to sleep. Dakota considers keeping the last wish for herself but chooses instead to give her sister the folded treasure. Dakota's selfless act of love to give away the last dream has a surprising and extraordinary result. by M.Y.
