Kian and Zola played in the big sunny meadow. They ran and jumped, having fun. Suddenly, Kian saw something on the green grass.
“Look, Zola!” Kian whispered. “It is a glitter trail!” Zola saw the sparkling path. It went into the big green woods.
“Let’s follow it!” Zola said. Kian thought that was a fun idea. They decided to follow the glitter trail and see where it went.
The trail led them deeper into the woods. The trees were tall, and green leaves made cool shadows. The glitter sparkled on the ground and on tiny leaves.
“Where could it go?” Kian wondered. Then, Zola saw a small, round shape ahead. It looked very special!
They found a small, round creature! It was Rumi, a fluffy moss friend. Rumi had big, sparkling green eyes and tiny antennae.
Rumi bounced with joy. The creature left the glitter trail everywhere it went! Kian and Zola learned that Rumi made the sparkle.
Rumi was a very special friend. It was shy, but it liked Kian and Zola. Rumi wanted to show them something new.
Rumi led them to a quiet corner of the clearing. It stopped by a small, leafy tree. The leaves shimmered a little.
This was Rumi’s special glitter-leaf tree! Every morning, Rumi helped the tree grow new, sparkling leaves. Kian and Zola felt proud to have a brave new friend.
The end.
