Once upon a time, there was a practical rabbit named Max. He lived in a threadbare burrow and always felt embarrassed about it. One day, all the other animals in the forest disappeared and Max found himself all alone. He searched everywhere for them but they seemed to have vanished into thin air. Just as he was about to give up, Max discovered a magical door. He opened it and stepped inside to find himself surrounded by all the other animals, who were having a grand feast. They were all so content and happy that they didn't even notice Max's threadbare clothing. Max was ashamed to be the only one not dressed up, so he quickly turned to leave. But just then, a fairy appeared and granted Max a wish. Max wished to look as fancy as all the other animals, and with a wave of her wand, his clothes transformed into the finest attire. From that day on, Max was no longer embarrassed about his threadbare clothes and was just as content as all the others. The end.
