Once upon a time, there was a group of birds who loved to eat the most delicious delicacy in all the land-- crystalline nectar from the crevasses of a mountain. But one day, the migration path changed and they found themselves isolated on a faraway island. They attempted to fly back but it was too far.
One bird, named Twirl, had an idea. He would have to crawl into the tight crevasses of the island's mountains to find the nectar. So, he crouched down low and squeezed into the first crack he found. To his delight, he discovered a whole new world of the sweetest crystalline nectar!
But as he tried to fly out with a beak full of the precious treat, he realized the exit was too small. He tried and tried but just couldn't fit through. Suddenly, he heard a loud cry! His friends had all flown down to help, and together they managed to pull him back out.
From that day on, Twirl and his friends made the island their permanent home, and each migration season, they would gather to enjoy the sweet delicacy from the crevasses. The end.

Reflections

1. What did Twirl do to find the crystalline nectar?
2. What happened when Twirl tried to fly out of the crevasse with nectar in his beak?
3. How did the group of birds make the isolated island their home?
4. Why did the migration path change in the story?
5. What was the most important part of the story?
