Princess Bahati lives in a once-lush kingdom now facing a severe drought. The rivers have dried up, crops are failing, and the people are worried. When the King summons his ministers to find a solution, they suggest only temporary fixes. But Princess Bahati proposes something bold—a water reservoir that can store rainwater during the wet season and connect to a nearby river to capture overflow. Her idea brings hope and, eventually, resilience to the kingdom. This empowering story celebrates problem-solving, environmental stewardship, and the leadership of young girls.
