Far away , far from all the eyes of people who live in the earth . Up in the frozen mountain, where most of the year it is cold. There was a place no one knows about it except who lives in it. It is called the area of wonder. There was a small group of creatures living there, creatures with a spirit but their shapes are very different from humans. They are a little scary to be been but their spirits are very beautiful. Their bodies are small and they have shiny skin, big eyes, nose and mouth. They live far from urban development, cars and electrical appliances. Their lives are very simple but they are full of pleasure. They live with joy, happiness, love and tenderness. They cooperate with each other to build their small houses, bring the firewood from the mountain to cook and warm them on the cold days. They are interested in giving and helping each other which they believe make them happy. They live their lives with no worries. They smile all the time. They love to sing. They sing from the morning to evening. While they work even though their voices are so horrible they enjoy singing so they keep doing it. This is what they do in the summer season, get up in the early morning, eat so quick and go to work in their field to plant some of the grains that sprout into the most delicious fruits and vegetables. They store the crops for the long winter when they cannot plant in the cold and snowfall. The crops were slow to grow because of their bad voices but they did not notice it and never stop singing. The winter season for them is to stay at their houses to feel warm and eat what they harvested in the summer season and listen to the most beautiful voice sings afar from them. They do not know where the sound source comes from and did not tire themselves to look for it. At this time of the seasons feel numbness and inability to move from the very cold except the youngest of them. He was very curious and wanted to know from where the sound came. He was trying to go outside to search for the source of the sound but everyone told him it was not a good idea to go out in the cold frozen time but he was not convinced. So he decided to go out after everybody went to bed. Outside the youngest was walking by himself in total darkness but he could not see anything. The sound of wind and snow falling in the last night covered the voice of the beautiful singing. He was waking and walking until he reached a far place he did not know where he was , he felt scared and wanted
