Through the Trees. Squirrels Play With Me

Hi I’m a little boy who goes to the woods most weeks with my parents. While my mommy gets our picnic ready, I like to play with my friends the animals.

Today I’ve been playing with squirrels, we had great fun climbing trees and running around. Then the squirrels got hungry and took me to a secret spot where they had hidden their nuts. We all had one, only I couldn’t open mine and smallest squirrel rolled over laughing.

Then they took me to a big tree to climb. 

“I can’t climb that, it’s too big for me to climb”. 

“Just follow me” said baby squirrel. 

Before I realised it, I was sitting on the top of the tree looking out across all the trees and I could see other animals running around. I decided that I would play with other animals next time and see the squirrels again.      

Goldie and the Three Kind Bears

The three bears looked at the frightened girl before them. She ate all their crunchy cereal, broke a comfy chair, and read books in one of their cozy beds. They should be angry, but they felt sorry for her. With a smile, they said, “You must need a home.” Goldie couldn’t believe how generous and kind the three bears were. To show her appreciation, she baked her favorite thing for them, a Gingerbread Man. Will the three kind bears enjoy their delicious treat, or will the Gingerbread Man escape just in the nick of time?

This heartwarming and amusing story puts a unique and clever spin on two classics, Goldilocks and the Three Bears and The Gingerbread Man, and will remind you that kindness is a special gift to receive but even better to give away.
