Read together
Once upon a time, there was a little bow who loved to play pranks on his friends. One day, he decided to play a trick on a group of squeaky mice who lived in a nearby tree. He took one of his feathers and tied it to the end of his bowstring.
The next day, when the mice were out gathering food, the bow crept up behind them and let out a loud squeak. The mice all jumped in surprise and turned around to see what was going on. The bow looked at them with a mischievous grin and said, "I have a new arrow, and it's much more powerful than any other you've ever seen!"
The mice didn't believe him, but the bow took aim and let the feather fly. It went soaring through the air, and the mice all cheered. They thought the bow was the best prankster in the war! But, little did they know, the gnawing squirrels were watching from a nearby branch.
