In the quaint village of Little Meadows, Eliot, an elderly watchmaker, struggles with nail-biting despite his meticulous craftsmanship. His shop, filled with the sounds of ticking clocks, serves as the setting for his personal transformation. Prompted by young Lila’s concern for his sore fingers, Eliot starts a new habit: placing a coin in a jar each time he resists biting his nails. This simple act not only heals his hands but also allows him to buy beautiful new chimes for the village, enhancing the community’s atmosphere. This story beautifully illustrates how personal change can positively impact individual and community well-being.
