Story
Once upon a time, in a garden full of sparkling flowers and gentle breezes, there lived a little bunny named Benny. Benny loved hopping around, exploring every leaf and pebble. One day, while sniffing a bright tulip, Benny heard a sweet sound. It was Ria, a bird with feathers as colorful as a rainbow, singing a lovely tune.
The Melody of Friendship
Benny wiggled his nose and said, “Hello, Ria! Your song is as pretty as the flowers!” Ria chirped back, “Thank you, Benny! Would you like to join me on an adventure?” Benny’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Yes, yes! Let’s go!” he giggled, and off they went, hopping and flying through the garden.
Discovering the Night Sky
As the sun began to set, the garden transformed. The sky turned a soft purple, and tiny stars started to twinkle. Benny and Ria found a cozy spot under a big tree. “Look, Benny, the stars are dancing!” Ria exclaimed. Benny gazed up in awe. “Wow, they’re like little lights in the sky!” he whispered. Together, they watched the stars until they felt sleepy.
Dreamland Awaits
With a yawn, Benny snuggled close to Ria. “I’m glad we are friends,” he said softly. Ria fluffed her feathers and replied, “Me too, Benny. Let’s have sweet dreams tonight.” As they closed their eyes, the stars above whispered sweet lullabies, guiding them into a world of dreams.
The end.
