The Friendly Animals

In a little village, there lived a few friendly animals. There was a wise old owl, a playful puppy, and a curious kitten. Every day, they would gather under the big, shady tree to share stories.

The owl would tell tales of the stars, the puppy would bark about his adventures, and the kitten would purr softly, dreaming of chasing butterflies.

Even though there were just a few of them, their friendship made every day special. Remember, sometimes having just a few friends can bring the biggest smiles!

So, who are your few special friends?
