Chapter 1
Sunny, the cheerful little lion of the Isaholidays villages
A long time ago, in the heart of the African savannah, a special lion cub was born: Sunny. His name came from his golden mane, which shone brightly at sunrise. Every morning, as the light kissed him, his energy would spark, and the whole pride knew it was time for a new day filled with adventures.
But what made Sunny truly unique was his curiosity to discover the world, meet new friends, and challenge himself. He loved running, swimming, and playing with the other animals of the savannah. Speed challenges with cheetahs, balancing contests with monkeys, fearless dives into ponds with elephants: every day was an opportunity to have fun and learn something new. Sports weren't just a pastime for him, but a way to grow, share experiences, and feel real emotions.

The journey for Isaholidays
One day, while resting in the shade of a baobab tree after a long day of playing, Sunny met a group of wandering flamingos. They told him about a magical place where the sun always shines, children laugh happily, and sports aren't just part of the day, they're a way of life.
“It's called Isaholidays!” they said, ”A special place in Italy, where children learn the most important values: respect, cooperation, courage, and loyalty! Here, you will be able to try new sports, enjoy incredible adventures, and become a role model for many young explorers!”
Sunny felt a rush of excitement run through his mane. The flamingos' words had lit a spark inside him: what if there really was a place where he could have new adventures, meet other kids, and share his energy? Maybe, somewhere in the world, there was a place waiting for him. With his heart full of excitement, he said goodbye to his family and set off, letting the sun guide him, ready to discover what awaited him on the horizon.

Reaching the Isaholidays villages
After days on the road, Sunny finally saw the sea and the long, golden beaches of Isaholidays. The air was filled with the scent of salt and the sky was bright blue. He knew right then that the sun had guided him there.
On the beach, there was a group of children playing and laughing, while entertainers organized tournaments and activities for everyone. As soon as he set his paws on the golden sand, Sunny stopped for a moment, breathing deeply the salty breeze. He felt drawn to that energy, as if he had always belonged there. His heart was beating fast with excitement as he walked towards them, curious to find out everything the holiday village had to offer.
Guests and staff welcomed him with enthusiasm, quickly making him feel part of their big family. To celebrate his arrival, they gifted him a perfectly-fitting sports outfit:
🔥 A red tank top with a bright sun in the center
🎽 White shorts with a small blue sun
👟 Sneakers ready for any challenge!
From that moment on, Sunny began to try every sport, from swimming challenges to running races, from beach volleyball to archery, realizing that every discipline had something to teach him.

His new mission
As time went by, Sunny understood what his mission was in the big family that had welcomed him: to pass on the values of sport to all the children staying in the holiday villages, to grow together and have fun.
🌞 Every morning, he would wake up the little guests with his boundless energy, ready to guide them towards new adventures.
🏖️ He would accompany them in their activities, helping them overcome their fears and believe in themselves, teaching them that every challenge is an opportunity to grow.
🏰 He would organize fun challenges, teaching respect, fair play, loyalty, and the importance of working together as a real team.
🎭 In the evening, he told stories under the starry sky, passing on the secrets and lessons of the savannah and teaching the value of nature and the harmony between living beings
🌱 He explored the beauty of the surrounding environment with children, teaching them to respect and take care of it. Strolling between the trees, watching the waves and listening to the sounds of nature, he explained how every little action can make a difference to the planet.
♻️ With games and educational activities, Sunny taught the children why it's important to recycle, save water and protect the sea and beach, helping them become little guardians of nature.
