Nettle

The fox did a bad thing. The Garden Gnomes grew weeds. The fox trampled them! Now the Gnomes have to grow new ones. They need to hurry. The Party is soon!

I took them some food. This is what I gave them: berries, two walnuts, and dandelion milk. Rudy did not help me. He is helping the Gnomes! I had to fly back and forth many many times! My wings are tired. My arms are tired.

Thistle was talking to the Queen about the weeds. So I gave the food to Nettle. He looks just like Thistle. Except his beard is shorter. So that is how I knew it was Nettle. And also he told me he was Nettle.

Rudy was busy digging. I did not see him today. I wanted to lick his pear. But I could not find him.

When I was done taking food to the gnomes, I saw Cloverflower. She said *Bud Mushroom I need you for something special. Wake up early tomorrow and meet me by my house. I will give you a surprise if you help me*.

I will help Cloverflower. I like her. She smells nice. And I like surprises.

Goodbye from Bud Mushroom.

Thistle

Today I visited Thistle. I delivered food to him. He was happy to see me.

This is what I delivered: a pear, acorn milk, and dandelion salad. Rudy helped me carry everything. I tied it to his back. Thistle will share the food with his friends.

Thistle is a Garden Gnome. He grows weeds. The Queen wants a lot of weeds for the party. The Queen likes weeds. I do not know why.

Gnomes do not fly. They do not have wings. They move very slowly. Sometimes I think they are asleep when they are not asleep. Sometimes they look like rocks! 

Thistle wears bright colors. He wears all of these colors at the same time: red, purple, yellow, green, orange, blue. I know he is a Garden Gnome and not a rock. Rocks do not wear all of those colors.

Thistle said thank you for the food and come back later. So I will.

I still do not have a gift for the Prince.

 Goodbye from Bud Mushroom.
