B
Joey was happy because he had many special friends, four squirrels, two rabbits
and many colourful birds. At the mealtime, these wild animals came near to the family
and they would feed these special friends.
In the large yard stood thirteen trees of different sizes. One day, while Joey was
playing with his sister under the trees, he noticed that a tree trunk had a sad look. He
ran into the house to tell his mum about it. She told Joey to find the reason.
So Joey went into the yard, ran to the sad tree and asked, "Why are you
unhappy?"
"I am the smallest tree around. The birds don't fly to me. The rabbits don't eat grass
under me. The squirrels don't climb to my top. Nobody needs me or loves me," replied
the sad tree.
After knowing the reason, the family had a meeting. Joey suggested making a seat
under the sad tree. Joey's father said he could help make a seat. The family would sit
under the tree and the tree wouldn't feel sad any more.
When Joey told his special friends the tree was sad, they decided to do what they
could to help make the sad tree happy again.
Early the next morning, when Joey woke up, he noticed birds singing happily in the
little tree and saw squirrels running up and down in it. Rabbits were eating the fresh
grass around the tree. The little tree was happy again.
Joey ran inside to tell the good news to his family. Joey's mother and father went
into the yard and saw the happy tree.
