About This Story
Tonight's story is called The Whispering Treasure Chest. When six-year-old Hamza hears his Jiddo's old tale about a chest hidden in Whispering Cove that only opens for an honest heart, he can't wait to go looking for it. But once Hamza finds the chest — and finds himself tempted to keep something that isn't quite his to keep — he learns that the hardest treasure to find isn't hidden in the sand at all. It's the one you have to choose, even when nobody's watching. By the end, Hamza discovers that a truthful heart is worth more than any glittering shell in the cove.
