Ellie the Elephant loved playing with her friends in the Belgian forest. However, Ellie had a problem: she never really listened when her friends talked. This made her friends feel ignored and upset. " - Why won't Ellie listen to us?" Bibi the Bunny asked sadly. The friends decided they needed to tell Ellie how they felt.
When Ellie tried to talk to her friends, they seemed distant. " - Why are you all so quiet?" Ellie asked. " - You never listen to us, Ellie," replied Tilly the Turtle. Ellie felt a pang of guilt, but she didn't know how to change. She was determined to make things right.
Ellie tried to listen more, but it was hard. She wanted to share her own stories instead. " - I tried listening, but it’s boring," Ellie confessed to Sam the Squirrel. Sam shook his head. " - If you don't listen, you'll never understand us," he said. Ellie felt stuck, unsure how to improve.
Feeling overwhelmed, Ellie decided to give up trying to fix things. " - Maybe I'm just not good at listening," Ellie sighed to herself. Her heart was heavy with disappointment. She sat alone, watching the leaves rustle in the breeze. It seemed like her friends would never forgive her.
Just then, Oliver the Owl flew down beside Ellie. " - I can help you listen better," Oliver offered. " - How?" Ellie asked, her eyes wide with hope. Oliver explained that by truly focusing on others, Ellie would understand their feelings. Ellie felt a spark of determination.
The next day, Ellie tried Oliver's advice. She listened carefully to her friends. " - You really heard us, Ellie!" Bibi exclaimed joyfully. By listening, Ellie felt closer to her friends and understood them better. She was happy and proud, knowing she had learned an important lesson.
