Once upon a time, in a beautiful valley where the sky was always blue and the wind always blew gently, there lived a small flower. This flower loved to soak up the sun and drink the rain that fell from the sky. She had deep roots that dug into the rich soil of the earth, taking in all the nutrients she needed to grow tall and strong.

One day, the wind began to pick up and the sky grew dark. The flower felt scared, but she remembered that she was rooted deeply in the soil and that she was part of the earth. She closed her eyes and let the wind blow around her. When she opened her eyes again, she saw that the storm had passed and the sun was shining once more.

The flower learned an important lesson that day. No matter what the sky or wind may bring, if you have strong roots in the soil, you will always be able to weather the storm. And with every raindrop and gust of wind, the flower grew even taller and stronger, spreading her petals wide to catch the sun and share her beauty with all the creatures of the valley.

Reflections

3. Why is it important for the flower to have strong roots?
4. What does the flower do to help other creatures in the valley?
5. How does the flower grow taller and stronger?
