Once upon a time, in the sunny land of Morocco, there lived a boy named Stephan. He had big dreams and an even bigger heart. One day, he found a mysterious, colorful carpet in his grandpa's old shop.
The carpet wiggled a little when Stephan stepped on it. Suddenly, it flew up into the air with Stephan on it! He held on tight as they whizzed over the marketplace, leaving a trail of sparkles.
They soared over orange trees and ancient castles. Stephan waved at the farmers and the castle guards who looked as tiny as ants from up high in the sky.
A friendly bird named Karim joined them. He chirped cheerfully and shared stories of the places he’d seen. Stephan felt like he was making a new friend in the skies.
Stephan grew hungry, so they swooped down to enjoy a feast with Karim's family. They all laughed and ate honey cakes, and Stephan tried to learn bird talk.
After saying bye to Karim, the carpet took Stephan to the shore. The ocean was sparkling under the moonlight. They danced above the waves, and Stephan felt like he could do anything.
As the first light of dawn colored the sky, the carpet gently flew back to Stephan's home. He tiptoed inside, with stories that nobody would believe, and a smile that was as warm as the Moroccan sun.
