In a place where the sun rose beautifully, a little camomile flower lived. But this camomile was not ordinary it was magical. If someone made a wish with a true and kind heart, the camomile could make it come true. Very few people knew this secret.
One day, a little girl came near the camomile. She wanted to pick it and place it in her hair, but something made her stop. She felt the flower might be sad if she did that. So she sat down beside it, gently touched its soft petals, and said,
It would be wonderful if there were some food right now.
Suddenly, food appeared in front of her. At first, she looked around, thinking someone was watching her, but there was no one. She smiled and began to eat. Then she said, Would you like to taste some? The camomile replied, No, I dont need any. I will be happy if you are happy.
The girl understood she had found real magic. From that day on, the camomile stayed with her and helped her whenever she made a heartfelt wish.
