A magical map. A forgotten world. A voice waiting to be found. When 8-year-old Layla discovers a glowing map beneath a palm tree in her Daytona Beach backyard, her summer vacation takes an unexpected turn. Joined by her brave black and white mini schnauzer, Macho, Layla is transported into the Realm of Whispers-a place where lost stories drift through the air and the past still speaks. Guided by enchanted allies and challenged by mysterious forces, Layla must journey across shifting lands, ancient trees, and skies full of secrets. At the heart of it all lies a powerful truth: the forgotten stories of the world can only be restored by those brave enough to believe in their own. Filled with adventure, heart, and wonder, The Adventures of Layla and Macho: The Map of Whispers is a tale for dreamers of all ages who believe every voice matters-and that even the smallest whisper can change everything.
