Apocalypse Rebirth: Making Billions With My Fortune-Telling Skill

"Great Seer, will my business prosper next month?" "Great Seer, will my wife finally give me a son by the end of the year?" "Great Seer, will I become rich?" April smiled at the anxious crowd gathered before her. Then she took a sip of tea and delivered the same answer she'd given all week. "You don't have to worry about the future." Relief spread across their faces, but April smiled wider as she continued. "Because you're all going to die." Silence. "...What?" "The apocalypse is coming," she continued lazily. "Most of you won't make it through the first week." Naturally, nobody believed her, except her loyal customers. And then, the worst of her predications began to come true. The stock market crash.

Because, unlike everyone else, April already knew how the world would end. After all, she'd died in it. In her previous life, she gave away everything—her food, her strength, her loyalty.

What are the characteristics of books telling untraditional stories?
These books usually break the norms of traditional storytelling. They don't follow the typical 'beginning - middle - end' structure in a straightforward way. For instance, 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' jumps from one crazy situation to another, with a very loose plot that still manages to hold the reader's attention. They can also have characters that are not the typical heroes or villains. They might be morally ambiguous or have strange abilities.

What are some books to get children telling stories?
One great book is 'The Little Red Hen'. The story is simple and engaging, which can inspire children to retell it. They can easily remember the hen's hard work and the lazy animals. Another is 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?'. Its repetitive pattern makes it easy for kids to learn and then tell others. Also, 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' is a good choice. The vivid pictures and the story of the caterpillar's transformation can encourage children to share this story with others.

How can books help children in telling stories?
Books offer a wealth of inspiration for children to tell stories. Firstly, they offer a variety of themes. In 'Charlotte's Web', the theme of friendship between Wilbur and Charlotte can be a starting point for children to create their own stories about friendship. Secondly, the settings in books can be a great help. For example, the magical world of 'Harry Potter' can make children excited to describe the places and events in the story. And finally, the emotions in books, like the love in 'The Velveteen Rabbit', can be translated into children's storytelling, making their stories more engaging.
