Read together

Once upon a time in the vast tundra of the Arctic, there lived a small caribou named Daphne. Daphne lived a meager life, wandering the endless snow and ice in search of food.

One day, as Daphne was searching for food, she met a group of ptarmigan birds. They welcomed her and offered to help her find food in the tundra.

The ptarmigan led Daphne to a hidden valley where they had built a cozy home made of branches and moss. The furnishings were simple, but warm and inviting.

Daphne was overjoyed to have found such kind friends and a place to call home. She spent many happy days with the ptarmigan, learning about the tundra and how to survive in its harsh conditions.

From then on, Daphne lived a much less meager life, filled with friendship and adventure. She wandered the tundra with the ptarmigan, discovering new sights and sounds, and never forgetting the kindness of her feathered friends.
