THE BEETLE AND THE BUTTERFLY

It was a sunny morning in the garden, a beetle was admiring the vibrant flowers.

Suddenly, he lost his balance and fell backwards onto a leaf.

 

 

He struggled, trying to turn around, but his paws were in the air, and he couldn't get up.

 Meanwhile, a colourful butterfly was flying nearby and noticed the beetle in trouble. With its bright wings, it approached and asked gently:

     “Hello, beetle! Do you need help?”

He, a little embarrassed, replied: 

    — Yes, please! I can't turn around!

 The butterfly, with a smile, thought about how he could help.

 She had an idea!

 With her delicate wings, she began to create a gentle wind around him, trying to help him balance.

But it didn't work as expected, the beetle remained fallen.

Then the butterfly decided to use its strength. It flew to the edge of the leaf and, with a push, landed right next to the beetle.

Using her antennae, Lili gently pushed Bob's body, helping him turn around.

 

 Finally, with a little effort, Bob managed to stand up again!

         — Phew! Thanks, my friend — exclaimed the beetle, relieved.

     — I didn't know how to get out of this!

     — Don't worry! Sometimes we all need a little help — she replied, smiling.

Bob, now standing and grateful, invited Lili to explore the garden together.

 They flew from flower to flower, enjoying the beauty of the day and creating a special friendship.

 Since then, whenever one of them got lost or encountered difficulties, the other was there to help, showing that friendship and solidarity are always important, no matter the size or shape.

 And so, the beetle and the butterfly continue their adventures, always ready to help each other.
