It is 1923. Marta is ten years old. Her town is building a new school. The workers have a big stone. It is the cornerstone. The teacher, Mr. Hoffmann, has an idea. 'Let's put a message inside the stone for the future,' he says. The children write their names. Marta writes: 'We are here. We are small. But we are here.' Mr. Hoffmann puts the papers in an envelope. He seals it. He puts it inside the stone.

Eighty years pass. It is 2003. Workers are taking down the old school. They find the stone. A woman named Dr. Fischer opens it. She finds the old envelope. She reads Marta’s words: 'We are here.' Dr. Fischer smiles. She puts the papers in a museum. She writes a note: 'We found you.'
