Lily Ladybug Counts Her Spots
Lily Ladybug counts her spots and gives away kindness along the way.
Lily Ladybug had seven shiny black spots. Every morning she counted them. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven!"
One morning, Lily went for a walk. She saw a caterpillar who was hungry. Lily showed him the juiciest leaf. The caterpillar smiled.
"That's one kind thing," Lily said.
She saw an ant who dropped his crumb. Lily helped him pick it up. "Two kind things!"
She saw a bee who was tired. Lily told her about a comfy flower to rest on. "Three!"
She shared her dewdrop with a thirsty beetle. "Four!"
She sang a song to a sad little worm until he giggled. "Five!"
She helped a spider fix her web. "Six!"
And she told a lost butterfly the way home. "Seven kind things!"
That night, Lily counted her spots. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Seven spots, and seven kind things. What a perfect day!"
And all her new friends waved goodnight.
