Whimsywood Adventure

The Adventure Begins

I am pleased to present the adventures of Shai and Shoko, which I have had the pleasure of crafting. This is the first of many exciting journeys that they will embark on. While these stories are primarily geared towards children ages 1-8, they can be enjoyed and appreciated by audiences of all ages.

As you follow along on their adventures, you may find that you recognize certain characteristics of Shai and Shoko in those of your loved ones. They are inquisitive, funny, and at times, even a bit afraid. You may even see similarities in yourself.

I am delighted that you have chosen to join us on this journey, and I hope that you will come to know and love Shai and Shoko as much as I do.

Enjoy the adventure!

In the Beginning

Shai was a curious little boy with a wild imagination. He loved to dream of faraway lands, and think about all the encounters he might find there. Shai was never alone - because his loyal dog Shoko was always by his side. Wherever Shai was, Shoko was sure to be near by. The inseparable duo were always eager for a new adventure and never knew where their next journey would lead them.

One day, Shai and Shoko were having fun playing catch with a shiny red ball. Shai noticed something, Shoko looked bored! "Oh no!" thought Shai. "It's time for another exciting adventure in a faraway land!" With a twinkle in his eye, Shai quickly packed a bag with some yummy snacks and Shoko's tail wagged excitedly. He couldn't wait to see what kind of fun and wonder they might find together in the unknown journey ahead.

As Shai and Shoko set out on their journey, they were amazed by the wondrous creatures they met. Each one had a unique and special feature. The first character they came across was a friendly duck named Daisy. Daisy was a quirky duck, with fluffy round feathers, and a long yellow bill. She was a bit of an oddball and always had to match her clothes perfectly. After some time, Daisy spoke about a wise Owl that she insisted Shai and Shoko meet!

Daisy led Shai and Shoko through the forest to a big old oak tree. In the tree sat a wise old owl named Aldo. Aldo had a unique habit of speaking backwards, which always made Shai and Shoko giggle. "gnizama era uoy" Aldo said as they arrived, which in his backwards language meant "You are amazing!"Aldo told them about a fantastic place called Whimsywood, where everything was "gnizama", um amazing! Shai and Shoko were soooo excited to go there.
