Once upon a time, in a bright and sunny forest, there lived a little rabbit named Ruby. Ruby had soft white fur, big floppy ears, and a twitchy pink nose. She loved to hop, skip, and explore new places with her friends. Chip the chipmunk, Benny the bear, and Luna the owl were always by her side.
One morning, Ruby saw something sparkling deep in the forest. “Look! Shiny!” she said, her nose twitching with excitement.
“What is it?” asked Chip, scurrying up to her.
“Let’s find out!” said Benny, his big paws thudding on the ground.
Together, they set off. Rustle, rustle went the leaves under their feet. Swoosh, swoosh went Benny’s paws. Chirp, chirp sang the birds above.
Soon, they reached a tall oak tree with a shiny acorn at its base. “Wow!” said Luna, her wide owl eyes gleaming. “It’s beautiful!”
But then, a loud growl echoed through the forest. Grrrrr! A grumpy raccoon named Rocky stepped out. “That’s my acorn!” he snapped.
Ruby’s heart thumped, but she stood tall. “We didn’t know it was yours,” she said. “But maybe we can share it? Sharing makes everyone happy!”
Rocky scratched his head. “Hmm. Sharing? I’ve never tried that before.”
Chip smiled. “It’s fun!”
Benny nodded. “And it makes new friends!”
Rocky thought for a moment, then smiled. “Okay! Let’s share.”
Together, they rolled the acorn back to the meadow. Plop, plop, thud! They cracked it open and shared the seeds. Munch, crunch went their happy mouths.
From that day on, Rocky the raccoon joined their adventures. And Ruby learned that being brave and kind can bring new friends and shiny, happy moments.
The end.
