Read together
Once upon a time, there was a small bird who lived in a cozy nest on a tall tree. One day, the bird noticed that all the leaves from the tree had fallen to the ground. The bird felt sad because its home was now exposed to the elements.
But then, the bird had an idea. It flew from its nest and gathered as many leaves as it could carry. The bird carefully placed the leaves back on the tree branches, one by one, until its home was covered and protected once again.
The bird was happy and proud of its work. It enjoyed the warm and cozy feeling inside its nest, surrounded by the soft rustling of the leaves. And so, the bird lived happily ever after, snug and protected in its leafy home.
