📖 Full Story
In the middle of Pinewood Forest, Bobo the bear had a favorite spot: a wide oak with a soft bed of moss. Each afternoon, after nibbling honey and wandering in the sun, he would settle down for a nap while the wind hummed and bees buzzed.
One golden day, Bunny arrived with a bright idea. “Let’s play hide-and-seek!” she squealed. Robin the bird trilled, “Yes—now!” and Hedgehog rolled in with a giggle. Bobo blinked at his cozy moss and then at his friends. He didn’t want to miss a single game.
So he stood up and joined them. They raced up hills, tumbled through leaves, and chased fluttering butterflies. Laughter hopped around the trees like little sparks.
As the sun began to slip, Bobo’s paws felt heavy. He tried one last leap but landed with a softer thud than before. “I think my paws are falling asleep,” he mumbled, yawning wide.
His friends gathered close. “Maybe naps are part of the fun too,” Robin suggested gently. Bunny nodded and placed a crown of clover on Bobo’s head. Hedgehog tucked a soft leaf over him like a blanket.
Bobo curled into a round, sleepy ball under the oak. The forest hummed a little lullaby and soon Bobo was dreaming—his dreams full of honey, hills, and tomorrow’s games. When he woke, he was bright-eyed and ready, and the day ahead felt even more exciting.
Moral:
Even the biggest hearts need rest to keep shining bright.
