At first, Misha just saw rows of quiet shelves and old wooden chairs. But as he opened his sketchbook, the library began to feel different. He remembered a story he’d read about a Library Lion who loved storytime. Suddenly, Misha didn't want to just draw a room; he wanted to draw a world.

Misha sat at a small oak table in the sunniest corner of the school library. His teacher had given the class an exciting assignment: "Draw what the library means to you."

He started by sketching a large window where the light turned into golden ladders. Instead of just books on the shelves, he drew tiny doors between the spines—doorways to space, pirate ships, and enchanted forests. He drew a girl in the corner whose book was glowing, with colorful characters like a tiny lion librarian peeking out from the pages.
