Joe and His Apple Tree
In his own backyard, five-year-old Joe embarks on a journey of growth and patience as he plants an apple seed. But when his excitement leads to over-care, Joe learns wisdom through mistakes and the importance of nurturing nature with patience.
Joe was having a very bad day. He felt sad and upset. Suddenly, he found an apple seed in his backyard. " - What should I do with this?" Joe wondered aloud. He decided to plant it and watch it grow. " - This will make me happy," he thought.
Joe carefully dug a small hole in the ground. He gently placed the seed in and covered it with soil. " - Grow big and strong," Joe whispered to the seed. He watered it lightly and smiled. Joe was excited, imagining a big apple tree. " - I can't wait to see apples!" he exclaimed.
Days passed, and a tiny sprout appeared. Joe was overjoyed. " - It's growing!" he shouted with glee. He watered the sprout every day, sometimes twice. " - I hope it grows faster," he said eagerly. But soon, he noticed the leaves were turning yellow.
Joe worried about the leaves turning yellow. " - Why aren't you growing?" he asked the sprout. He thought maybe it needed more water. So, he gave it a big drink every day. " - This will help," he hoped. But the sprout didn't look any happier.
The sprout looked sadder with each passing day. Joe's excitement turned into worry. " - Am I doing something wrong?" he wondered. He tried singing to the sprout, thinking it might help. " - Grow, little sprout, grow!" he sang. But the sprout stayed small.
Joe felt like giving up. " - Maybe I'm not a good gardener," he sighed. He sat by the sprout, feeling sad again. " - I wanted apples so much," Joe whispered. He thought about the fun he imagined with the apple tree. Maybe it was all a dream.
Just then, Joe's neighbor, Mr. Green, saw him. " - Why the long face, Joe?" Mr. Green asked. Joe explained his troubles with the sprout. " - You know, plants need care, but also patience," Mr. Green said kindly. Joe listened carefully.
Mr. Green showed Joe how to care for the sprout. " - Too much water can hurt it," he explained. Joe realized his mistake. " - I've been too excited," Joe admitted. He promised to be gentle and patient. " - Thank you, Mr. Green," Joe said gratefully.
Joe started taking care of the sprout properly. He watered it just enough and talked to it softly. " - Grow strong, little sprout," he encouraged. Slowly, the sprout grew taller and stronger. Joe learned to wait patiently. He felt wiser each day.
One sunny morning, Joe rushed outside. " - Wow!" he exclaimed. There on the tree was a big, shiny apple. Joe was overjoyed. " - All that waiting was worth it!" he cheered. He learned that patience and care bring sweet rewards.
