Story Details

Lili, with her bright red shoes on the wrong feet as usual, gasped! Her precious garden flowers, usually so perky, hung their heads like sleepy puppies. The sun, a giant yellow lollipop in the sky, seemed too strong. “Oh, my poor darlings!” she whispered, her heart squeezing tight.

She leaned close, humming a soft, wobbly tune. *Mmm-mmm-mmm, feel better, little friends.* A tiny bee, buzzing like a forgotten toy, landed right on her finger! Its fuzzy legs tickled! Lili giggled, a shiver running down her arm. The bee, warm from the sun, wiggled its antennae. Lili looked from the bee to the sun, then back at her droopy flowers. Maybe the sun wasn't a bully. Maybe it was a big, warm hug?

Suddenly, Lili had an idea! She snatched her watering can, a big, green elephant with a wobbly trunk. *Slosh, slosh, slosh!* went the water as she poured. The first rose, a velvety red, perked up a tiny bit. Its leaves seemed to sigh.

But then, a mischievous gust of wind, *WHOOSH!* blew a pile of dry leaves onto her sweet peas! “Oh no!” Lili cried, her lower lip trembling. She gently brushed them off, one by one. The sweet peas, freed from their blanket, stretched a little higher, as if yawning awake. The sun, still beaming, felt less like a fiery dragon and more like a cozy blanket.

Then, a fat, juicy snail, *SLITHER, SLITHER*, started munching on a daisy petal! “Hey! No, no, no!” Lili exclaimed, her eyes wide. She carefully scooped the snail onto a big green leaf and carried it to a far-off bush. The daisy, with its one tiny bite mark, still looked cheerful.

Lili watched her garden. The sun shined, the bee hummed nearby, and her flowers, though a little tired looking, were standing taller. Her tummy felt warm and happy. The sun was good. The water helped. And even a little girl with shoes on the wrong feet could make a big difference.
