The sun is up. The birds are up. In the old stone fountain, a little water drop shines. His name is Drip-Drop. Drip-Drop is very happy. Hello, beautiful morning! he says.

Chirpy the robin is very thirsty. Drip-Drop slides onto a big green leaf. Chirpy takes a tiny sip. She flaps her wings with joy. Thank you, Drip-Drop! says Chirpy. Drip-Drop smiles back.

Slow, slow, slow... here comes Silver. Silver is a gentle snail. He has traveled a long way. Drip-Drop gives him a cool splash. Silver hides in his shell and giggles. Thank you, Drip-Drop! says Silver.

Baa! Baa! says a soft voice. It is Fluffy, the little white lamb. Fluffy is very tired from playing. Drip-Drop lands right on Fluffy’s nose. Fluffy feels cool and jumps up high. Thank you, Drip-Drop! says Fluffy.

Patter the field mouse hops out of the grass. Patter wants to play a game! Drip-Drop falls into Patter’s tiny paws. Patter dances in a circle. Thank you, Drip-Drop! says Patter. Sharing is so much fun!

Rustle, rustle! It is Prickly the hedgehog. He just woke up from a long nap. Drip-Drop offers him a fresh drink of water. Prickly smooths down his quills. Thank you, Drip-Drop! says Prickly. Waiting is so sweet!

Fluffy and Patter go to the garden together. They see some thirsty yellow daisies. Fluffy moves the tall grass away. Patter clears the dry dirt. The flowers lift their heads. Working together is wonderful!

Chirpy and Prickly sit by the old fountain. They look at the colorful flowers. The world is so pretty! Chirpy sings a happy song. Prickly listens quietly. Everyone is smiling. Friendship is a special gift!

The day is ending. Drip-Drop and Silver climb onto a very large leaf. The sky turns pink and orange. Drip-Drop shines next to Silver. Today was a very good day, they whisper together.

All the friends are happy now. They look at the flowers and say thank you to the sun. Drip-Drop is a little drop with a big heart. Remember, little ones even the smallest kindness makes love grow big!
