Grateful Gecko Excerpt:
Grover Gecko had spent the morning by his favorite spot on Ahway Island’s beach, lounging beneath the shade of Paulina Palm Tree. Today had been an unusually busy day at the beach. Though the sun shined hot and bright, fluffy clouds drifted lazily across the sky, offering brief moments of refreshing shade. A gentle sea breeze carried a light mist, adding to the perfect beach weather.
To Grover, it certainly seemed like seemed like everyone on Ahway Island had come to the beach. It was bustling with activity. Children laughing, seagulls squawking, waves crashing…Grover wasn’t in the mood for all that noise today. He wanted a nap and a quiet place to enjoy it. So, he decided to walk over to the nearby forest, searching for a nice, serene spot to rest.
