Sunny the Sunflower's Big Dream

Once upon a time, in a beautiful garden, there lived a sunflower named Sunny. Sunny was a lovely sunflower with bright yellow petals and a happy face. She loved living in the garden and being surrounded by her flower friends. However, Sunny had a big dream. She wanted to reach the sky and touch the clouds.

Every day, Sunny would wake up early and stretch her stem towards the sky. She believed that if she grew taller and taller, she could make her dream come true. But as hard as she tried, Sunny could never reach the clouds. Sometimes, she felt sad and discouraged.

One day, a wise butterfly named Bella landed on Sunny's petals. Bella noticed how patient Sunny was and asked her about her big dream. Sunny explained with excitement and a touch of sadness. Bella reassured Sunny and said, 'My dear Sunny, patience is the key. Remember, good things take time.'
