Story For Child

One day in a small mountain town there was a baby groundhog named Tulip Sniffer. He was very curious and liked to explore the surroundings. One day, while he was walking around the village, he discovered a small cave where there were fireflies fluttering in the dark. Fascinated by this marvelous spectacle, Tulip approached gently to look at them more closely. But hardly had he taken a step that all the fireflies flew away at the same time!

Tulip was so surprised that he couldn't suppress a small cry of surprise. And just after his cry, a mysterious voice echoed in the cave: “Hello my groundhog friend! It was the voice of a fairy who was hidden behind a bush. She introduced herself to Tulip and explained that every evening she came to admire the fireflies with her magic hand and that these lights were very special because they could grant any wish if you ask nicely...

Tulip being very happy to meet the fairy and delighted by her proposal, immediately made a wish: "I would like to be always accompanied by my friends". The fairy smiled and granted her wish by waving her magic wand above the fireflies which then took the form of all her animal friends in the village: rabbits, squirrels and birds! From then on, Tulip spent much more time with them exploring the surroundings...
