Meet Donovan, a lively boy who loves running, jumping, and flapping his hands when he gets excited. One day at school, Donovan felt extra bouncy as he entered the classroom. His teacher, Ms. Carter, began talking about feelings, and Donovan’s excitement grew—soon his hands were flapping in the air! Some classmates noticed and wondered, "Why does Donovan flap his hands?" Ms. Carter smiled and said, "Everyone shows their feelings differently. Some people cheer, others jump, and Donovan flaps. That’s okay!" Donovan felt proud, knowing his flapping was just how he showed excitement. Then, Ms. Carter introduced a game called Superhero Breathing to help the class calm down when big feelings got too much. She stood tall, breathing in deeply and exhaling slowly. Donovan tried it too. He stood up, took a deep breath like a superhero, and felt his energy calm down, but he still felt strong. His classmates thought it was so cool, they joined in, practicing superhero breathing together. They learned that everyone expresses feelings in different ways, and that’s something special. Donovan still loved his super flap, but now he had superhero breathing for when he needed it. The class kept practicing together whenever their feelings got big. By the end of the day, Donovan realized his greatest superpower was just being himself. Ms. Carter reminded them, “Our differences make us unique.” Donovan felt proud of his super flap and his breathing skills. His classmates celebrated their own special ways of showing feelings too. Feeling proud and unstoppable, Donovan knew that with superhero breathing and being himself, he could handle any big feelings that came his way. 22 pages

This story follows Kamen, a Whispiket, who senses a disruption in Earth’s natural balance through her ability to detect subtle changes in the wind. Whispikets, ethereal beings from the planet Cket, are tasked with maintaining Earth’s “Blues”—the sky, sea, and balance of ecosystems. Kamen detects mosquito pheromones in late September, signaling a problem since mosquitoes shouldn’t be mating at this time. She heads to the Hall of Blews to discuss the anomaly with her fellow Whispikets, Vir and Vio. Their leader, Eto, reveals that the frogs, key to controlling the mosquito population, are failing to thrive. If they don’t act quickly, the frogs’ decline will cause a mosquito surge, harming the environment. Eto sends the Whispikets across South Florida to help the frogs spawn, but a new threat arises: a massive hurricane is approaching. Whispikets are able to steer hurricanes by guiding them from the eye of the storm, and Eto assigns Kamen as the navigator with MO, a rookie Whispiket, volunteering to pilot the storm. Kamen is hesitant about MO’s inexperience but chooses to trust him. As they attempt to direct the hurricane, MO’s mistakes cause chaos—his erratic piloting revs up the winds too high, damaging human structures. However, the damage inadvertently clears debris, and the Whispikets are able to find all the frogs they need to restore balance. Kamen manages to guide the storm to safety, breaking it up over the sea and minimizing its impact. Back at the Hall, the Whispikets are buzzing about the storm’s outcome. Kamen is ready to defend MO, but Eto surprises everyone by praising his efforts. Despite his rookie piloting, MO’s actions helped clear the way for the frogs, allowing the Whispikets to restore balance to Earth. The story highlights themes of trust, growth, and the unexpected ways mistakes can lead to success. It also underscores the Whispikets' mission to protect Earth’s delicate ecosystems.
