Baby Bird
Amidst a gorgeous Spring day, a curious and caring 5-year-old named Gracie embarks on an adventure to the park with her daddy. Along the way she finds a baby bird that has fallen out of its nest. Gracie learns the importance of patience and letting nature run its course.
One bright and sunny Spring afternoon, Gracie and her daddy went for a walk to the tree park to collect some flowers for her mommy.
At the tree park, Gracie found all sorts of leaves: big green ones, tiny red ones, crunchy brown ones, and even some that were half yellow and half orange. When her arms were full of leaves, they started to head home.
Gracie thought of another idea. She could take the bird to the forest at the edge of the neighborhood. 'Maybe its home is there,' she said. Her mom agreed it was worth a try. They packed a small bag with snacks and started their journey.
As they entered the forest, they saw many trees and heard other birds singing. Gracie looked at the little bird and said, 'Don't worry, we'll find your home.' The forest was big, and they didn't know where to start. Gracie felt a bit scared.
They walked deeper into the forest and saw a tree with a big nest. 'Maybe this is it!' Gracie exclaimed. But when they got closer, the nest was empty. The little bird chirped sadly again. Gracie felt her heart sink.
They kept walking and found a small stream. 'Birds need water, maybe we are close,' said Gracie's mom. Gracie looked around but didn't see any nests. The forest seemed endless. Gracie started to feel tired.
They decided to follow the stream, hoping it would lead them somewhere. Gracie stumbled over a rock and fell. 'Are you okay?' her mom asked. Gracie nodded, but she felt frustrated. 'Why can't we find its home?' she wondered aloud.
They walked for hours and saw many birds, but none looked like the little bird. 'Maybe we should go back,' Gracie said sadly. Her mom hugged her. 'Sometimes, finding the answer takes time and patience,' she said. Gracie nodded, feeling a bit better.
As they turned to leave, they heard a rustling sound. 'What's that?' Gracie asked. They saw a wise old owl perched on a branch. 'Whoo are you looking for?' the owl asked. Gracie explained their problem to the owl.
The owl nodded wisely. 'Look for the tallest tree at the heart of the forest. You'll find what you seek there,' it said. Gracie felt hopeful again. 'Thank you, Mr. Owl!' she said. They followed the owl's advice and walked towards the heart of the forest.
After a long walk, they found the tallest tree. It was grand and majestic. 'This must be it,' Gracie said. But as they looked around, they didn't see any nests. Gracie felt tears in her eyes. 'We tried so hard,' she said.
Gracie sat down and hugged the bird close. 'I'm sorry, little bird,' she whispered. Her mom sat beside her. 'Sometimes, the answer is right in front of us,' she said. Gracie looked up at the tree again, thinking hard.
Gracie suddenly remembered something. 'The owl said to look at the tallest tree,' she said. She stood up and looked up, really high this time. 'There it is!' she exclaimed. A nest was hidden among the high branches.
Gracie's mom helped her climb the tree carefully. They reached the nest and gently placed the little bird inside. The bird chirped happily. Gracie felt joy in her heart. 'We did it!' she said, smiling brightly.
As they climbed down, other birds started to sing. 'You were brave and wise,' her mom said. Gracie felt proud. 'Thank you, Mom,' she said. They walked back home, feeling happy and accomplished.
Back home, Gracie told her dad about their adventure. 'I'm so proud of you,' he said. Gracie learned that with wisdom and perseverance, she could solve any problem. She hugged her mom and dad tightly. 'I love you both,' she said.
