Story
Once in a colorful meadow, there was a bunny named Floppy. Floppy loved to hop and explore everything around him. One sunny morning, while munching on a delicious carrot, Floppy looked up and saw a fluffy cloud drifting by. The cloud was called Puffy. Puffy was friendly and always had a big, soft smile.
The sky’s gentle invitation
“Hello, Floppy!” Puffy called from the sky. “Would you like to come and see the world from up here?” Floppy’s eyes widened with excitement. “Oh, yes, Puffy! That sounds like fun!”
Floating together
With a little magic, Puffy gently lifted Floppy up into the sky. They floated together, seeing trees, rivers, and even a shining rainbow. Floppy felt the light breeze tickle his ears and giggled with joy. “Everything looks so small from up here!” Floppy exclaimed.
A rainbow’s warm welcome
As they floated closer to the rainbow, Puffy said, “Would you like to touch the rainbow, Floppy?” Floppy nodded eagerly. With Puffy’s help, Floppy gently reached out and touched the soft colors of the rainbow. It felt like a warm hug.
Homeward bound
After their adventure, Puffy gently brought Floppy back to the meadow. “Thank you, Puffy,” Floppy said, hugging his new friend. “I had the best adventure ever!” Puffy smiled and said, “Anytime, Floppy. Friends like us can always find magic all around us.”
The end.
