The Invisible Coin Keepers

3rd November: What Shall We Do Today?

By: P.D. Cain

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When an ordinary morning turns magical, three friends discover that celebrations mean more than they ever imagined.
Imani, Tommy, and Maya thought it would be just another day on their favorite front steps—until Tommy starts spinning like a compass needle and an orange door appears, covered in mysterious symbols. Armed with magical scarves and their courage, the three friends step through the door into the Celebration Bridge, a magical realm where eleven different celebrations are in danger of being forgotten.
Someone has stolen the Day Coins—special tokens that hold the meaning and memory of each celebration. Without them, traditions like National Sandwich Day, Japanese Culture Day, and World Jellyfish Day will fade from the world forever. The friends must journey through floating kitchens, shape-shifting houses, underwater gardens, and art galleries that come alive to recover the coins and save the celebrations.
But finding the coins isn't enough. To claim each one, the children must discover what each celebration truly means—learning about invisible work that goes unnoticed, the importance of cultural expression, how all living things are connected, and why even ordinary things like sandwiches and accessories matter more than we think.
