Whenever the waves gently sing lullabies, the beach lights up with twinkling lights. That&#8217;s the little shells whispering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Inside these shells, there lived a special little princess named Elara. Elara is different from other shells, her shell is a light pearl color with spiral patterns resembling a rainbow. The most amazing thing is that when Ella is happy, a beautiful sound like a wind chime comes out of her shell &#8211; &#8216;ding ding ding&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">One night, the little crab skin hurriedly crawled over, his two big claws tightly embracing each other. Ellara, Ellara! &#8220;Pippi whispered,&#8221; My good friend Little Sea Star is lost. He can&#8217;t find the coral reef to go home and is so anxious that he&#8217;s almost crying<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Ellara listened and gently opened her shell. She didn&#8217;t speak, but instead spat out a small, warm yellow pearl from her shell. This pearl floated into mid air and turned into a gentle little lantern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Don&#8217;t be afraid, Pippi, &#8220;Ella&#8217;s voice was as gentle as waves,&#8221; we&#8217;ll follow the light and find our home<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">So, the little lantern slowly floated in front, with Ella and Pippi following behind. They passed by the snoring turtle grandfather, the small shrimp counting stars, and even greeted a shy little seahorse. The light of the small lantern is not dazzling, but instead makes the night sea feel like a soft blanket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, they saw the familiar coral reef. The little starfish was sitting on a stone, and when he saw the light, he immediately waved his arms happily and said, &#8220;Ellara! Pippi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Found it! &#8220;Pipi happily circled around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The little starfish pounced and hugged Ella&#8217;s shell, saying, &#8220;Thank you, Ella. Your light is so warm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Ella shyly closed the shell, and a soft &#8220;ding&#8221; sound came from inside, as if saying &#8220;you don&#8217;t need to thank me&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">It was late at night, and Granny Moon covered the sea with a silver blanket. Ellara returned to her small sandpit, closed her eyes, and listened to the singing of the waves&#8217; &#8220;clack, clack&#8221;. The glowing pearl returned to her shell and turned into a sweet dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Goodnight, little crab. Goodnight, little starfish. Goodnight, all my good friends, &#8220;Ella whispered in her heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The sea breeze gently blew, and Princess Shell fell asleep. In her dream, there are soft clouds, sweet honey, and the little lantern that always lights up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Shh, listen, has the sound of the waves become quieter? That&#8217;s Princess Shell saying to you, &#8220;Goodnight, have a good dream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Story of Princess Shell<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":346,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[21,18],"class_list":["post-344","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-children","tag-children","tag-story"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/344","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=344"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/344\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":347,"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/344\/revisions\/347"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/346"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=344"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=344"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/storyrecyclebin.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=344"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
