Here are two stories from Armenia.

In the first one, a boy has a dream but he won't tell a soul about it. He solves riddles and teams up with the super team of the ancient world. By their powers combined, can he make his dream come true?

And in the second story, a woman learns the power of saying "tush". Her daughter gets married to a very nice bird who lives in the fountain, but when her sisters get jealous and hurt the poor bird/man, she is banished to far, far away. Can she heal the poor birdy husband?
