The Greatest Treasure
By Amit Garg
One day,
Peter found a treasure map.
\"Hurray!
I’m going to find this treasure
and have some adventure!\"
he exclaimed.
Peter set off.
He walked a long way
and finally reached a forest.
There he met Lion.
\"You are strong and courageous,\"
said Peter to Lion.
\"Will you come with me
on a treasure hunt?\"
Lion agreed and joined Peter.
The forest was dense and dark.
Peter was afraid,
but with Lion by his side,
he made it through.
When the two
finally reached the mountain,
they met Eagle.
\"You have excellent vision
and can alert us to dangers,\"
said Peter to Eagle.
\"Will you come with us?
We’re looking for a treasure!\"
Eagle agreed
and joined Peter and Lion.
The mountains were tall and craggy.
Lion slipped,
but Peter was swift enough
to give him a hand
and pull him up.
Eagle, with his sharp vision,
watched every step they took.
Soon, they reached the valley below
where they met Sheep.
\"Will you join us
in our search for a treasure?\"
Peter asked Sheep.
“And keep us warm when it’s cold?\"
Sheep agreed and joined Peter,
Lion and Eagle.
A cold wind swept across
the endless meadow.
They all huddled against Sheep,
who kept them warm and cozy.
The four finally reached the desert,
where they met Camel.
“You are called
the ship of the desert,”
said Peter to Camel.
“Will you help us get across
and join the treasure hunt too?”
Camel agreed.
Peter,
Lion and Sheep
mounted the camel
and set off happily
across the vast desert,
with Eagle enjoying
the spectacle from above.
Camel began galloping
and everybody cheered
with excitement.
Crossing the desert on Camel’s back
was thrilling!
The five finally reached the ocean,
where they met Turtle.
“Can you help us cross the ocean?”
Peter asked Turtle.
“We are on a treasure hunt.”
Turtle agreed
and joined Peter,
Lion, Eagle, Sheep and Camel.
The rough waves
almost drowned the party,
but Turtle skillfully
transported them across.
They met Owl on the other side.
Owl spoke from his ancient wisdom:
“Congratulations,
you have found the treasure.”
“Where is it?”
they all exclaimed in surprise.
“Together
you have passed the forest,
climbed the mountains,
dared the valley,
braved the desert,
and crossed the ocean.
You would never have done it
without one another.”
They all looked at each other
and realized
that Owl was right –
they had found friendship!
Indeed,
they had found
the greatest treasure ever!
