What is When I was a Child about?

A grandmother reminisces about a time when the world was filled with magic—elephants in the sky and kingdoms under the sea. Her granddaughter, however, believes that magic still exists today, pointing out wonders like faces in rainbows and flowers celebrating birthdays. Together, they explore the enduring enchantment of the world, highlighting the special bond between generations and the importance of seeing magic in everyday life.
