Willow's Wonderful New Friends

Willow was a little rabbit with soft, brown fur. She lived in a cozy burrow under a big oak tree. Willow loved to hop around, but she was often alone. She wished she had friends to play with.

One sunny morning, Willow hopped to a new part of the woods. She saw a bright blue bird sitting on a branch. "Hello!" Willow said. "What's your name?"

The bird chirped, "Hello! I'm Skye. I like to sing!" Willow smiled. "I'm Willow. I like to hop!" Skye flew down and landed next to Willow.

Just then, a small, green frog hopped by. "Ribbit! Hello!" the frog said. "I'm Finley. I like to swim!" Willow and Skye said hello to Finley.

Willow, Skye, and Finley started to play together. Willow hopped, Skye sang, and Finley hopped in puddles. They laughed and had so much fun. Willow was happy. She had new friends to play with in the woods!

From that day on, Willow, Skye, and Finley played together every day. They learned new things from each other and always helped each other. Willow wasn't lonely anymore. She knew that having friends made everything better.
