If You Take a Tiger to a Tea Party

Tiggy the Tiger was excited for her first tea party at Buckingham Palace. She imagined sipping tea and eating tiny sandwiches. But when they arrived, there was a problem: the tea cups were missing! Tiggy felt worried. " - How can we have a tea party without cups?" Tiggy asked. Her friend, Ellie the Elephant, shrugged, " - We must find them, Tiggy!"

Tiggy and Ellie began their search for the missing tea cups. They tip-toed past the royal guard, who was fast asleep. But then, a gust of wind blew a map from Tiggy's paw. " - Oh no!" cried Tiggy. Without the map, they didn’t know where to start looking. " - We'll have to remember the way ourselves," suggested Ellie.

As they continued, Tiggy and Ellie faced more obstacles. They reached a tall hedge maze. " - We'll never find our way out," sighed Tiggy. They tried left, then right, but kept hitting dead ends. Just when they were about to turn back, they heard a voice. " - Follow my voice," said a wise old owl sitting atop the maze.

After many wrong turns, Tiggy felt like giving up. " - I'm too small to find the way," she admitted. Ellie patted her back, " - We can't stop now, Tiggy. We need those cups!" As they sat, a squirrel scampered by with a shiny tea cup. " - Maybe he knows something," Tiggy thought aloud.

The squirrel led them to a hidden door in the maze. " - Look! There’s a secret room," exclaimed Ellie. Inside, they found a room filled with tea cups of all shapes and sizes. Tiggy grinned, " - We did it, Ellie!" The wise owl nodded, " - Sometimes, wisdom is knowing when to ask for help."

With the tea cups back at the palace, the tea party could begin. The guests cheered as Tiggy and Ellie returned. Tiggy beamed, " - We couldn’t have done it without everyone’s help." The party was a success and Tiggy learned an important lesson. " - Wisdom is sharing what you know," she told Ellie. " - And asking for help," Ellie added.
