The Boy and the Golden Deer

In a village bordering a large forest, an eight-year-old boy named Sam steps into the quiet white of a cold winter morning, dressed in his red wool coat, blue knitted scarf and brown mittens, and wonders if spring will ever come back. Near the trees he spots a warm golden glow: a deer with fur like sunlight and small sparkling silver antlers, watching him with shy amber eyes. When the deer trots into the woods, Sam hesitates only briefly before following.

The deer guides him through the silent trees to a clearing where a small spring lies frozen beneath thick ice. The creature paws helplessly at the surface, and Sam kneels, removes his mittens and promises not to leave the spring frozen. With a sturdy stick and steady determination he begins to break the ice while the deer works beside him. This gentle winter tale by Ebru Mina TOMURCUK explores courage, kindness and the friendship that grows when someone chooses to help another creature.
