What the tale is about

In the garden of an old, empty house in the town of Şan stands a wishing well that animals believe can make their wishes come true. Tiger cub Koni wishes for good grades and a bicycle, Mrs. Tanem wishes for a flower shop, and Mr. Kekeç wishes to be healthy. When nothing changes, a voice from the well teaches them that wishes require both prayer to Allah and determined effort. Koni studies, Tanem grows flowers, and Kekeç adopts healthy habits. Their wishes come true, and they meet Kuriş, the frog who asks them to share the well’s coins with people in need.
