Sammy the Squirrel's Adventure

In the heart of a big, green forest, there lived a little squirrel named Sammy. Sammy had the fluffiest tail and loved to hop from tree to tree, gathering acorns and making new friends.

One sunny day, he found a shiny red apple under a big oak tree. “What a treasure!” he squeaked with joy.

Sammy decided to share it with his friends, the birds and rabbits. Together, they had a picnic, laughing and munching on the delicious apple.

Sammy learned that sharing makes every adventure sweeter! So, next time you find something special, remember to share it with your friends!
