Rosa , the Lily!

by Aaron Shaw & Becky Tucker

Once upon a time, there was a red lily that loved the sun. The lily's name was Rosa-interesting name for a lily, right? One day Rosa was sitting in her usual place in the garden when she noticed a little sprout poking out of the dirt.
"Why, what are you little sprout?" Rosa asked.
The little sprout didn't reply. It was still growing and had not opened its eyes yet.
Rosa was so interested in this new sprout. What is it's name? Where did it come from? Where was it going? While she contemplated the many questions running through her mind she created a little pebble bed for the little sprout. With the sun setting that day Rosa fell asleep still thinking about the cute little sprout.
The next morning a miracle happened!! The little sprout had grown into a tall tree over night! The pebble bed was still there but it kind of got destroyed a little. But that's okay because the sprout was a tree! Rosa was so startled, she jumped out of her spot in the ground and fell over. Suddenly, the tree woke up!
