Welcome back to Opral’s world! In this continuation of her series, Opral finds herself in the middle of another exciting day at school, but this time, it involves edge control and a lesson in understanding differences.

While solving the case, Opral and her classmates learn about the power of words, including homophones—words that sound the same but have different meanings. These tricky pairs remind us that understanding isn’t always straightforward and requires careful listening and patience.

This story is also about empathy and celebrating the beauty of different cultures. Kwesi and Alejandro’s experiences show how stepping into someone else’s shoes can help us appreciate their perspective. By embracing kindness and curiosity, we can bridge gaps and make everyone feel like they belong.

Through Opral’s journey, we hope young readers are inspired to explore new words, new cultures, and new ways of connecting with others. Let’s keep learning and growing together!
