  Caravan Bear once again hitches up Hector the horse to the brightly painted gypsy-style caravan and, with Whitby the dog and Christopher Rabbit, set off in search of new adventures. 
  The travelling life of the caravan and its occupants provide the opportunity for Rabbit to share stories from the Bible with other animals they meet and they join Caravan Bear, Whitby and Hector in listening - and learning from - the stories. He is frequently interrupted by questions from his listeners, the kind of questions any child - or adult - might ask.The real and often humorous events that happen to Rabbit and his friends are mirrored by the stories from the Bible enabling children to realise that the stories have relevance and meaning today. 
  The Animals' Caravan has echoes of children's classics such as Wind in the Willows and Alice in Wonderland, as the caravan travellers form a great friendship on their journey together. Rabbit also finds himself on a journey of faith as he and his new friends wrestle with some of the often difficult concepts in the bible, thereby gaining fresh insights and understanding of God's loving involvement and care for the world.

  The Veldt AKA The World the...

  The Hadley family lives in a fully automated Happylife Home, where machines cook, clean, and even soothe them to sleep. At the heart of the house is the nursery, a vast simulation chamber that turns a child’s thoughts into vivid landscapes—but lately, George and Lydia Hadley have noticed that their children’s minds keep returning to the same unsettling place: the African veldt, complete with lions, heat, and distant screams. 
  As the parents struggle to understand why Wendy and Peter are so fixated on this harsh landscape, the nursery’s realism becomes impossible to dismiss. The veldt is no longer a harmless fantasy but a window into emotions their children refuse to express out loud, forcing the Hadleys to confront how thoroughly they’ve surrendered their roles to the house’s machines. 
  Ray Bradbury—one of the most influential voices in 20th-century science fiction—explores technology, family, and responsibility with powerful clarity. His work blends poetic storytelling with sharp warnings about convenience, automation, and the human cost of giving too much away to machines. 
  Known for Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, and dozens of iconic short stories, Bradbury shaped modern speculative fiction. “The Veldt” is an early example of his talent for mixing wonder with tension, showing how imagination, when untended, can reveal more truth than comfort.
