Little Pip was a fluffy rabbit. He loved to hop and play.
One sunny morning, Pip heard a noise. *WHOOSH! RUSTLE!* It came from a big green bush. "Oh no!" thought Pip. "What is that scary noise?" He wiggled his nose and hid behind a big rock.
Wise old Squeaky the Squirrel saw Pip. "Why are you hiding, little one?" she asked. "That bush is making a scary noise!" whispered Pip. "Maybe it's a monster!" Squeaky chuckled. "Sometimes things seem scary when we don't know what they are. Be brave, Pip. Let's look closer."
Pip took a deep breath. *Thump-thump* went his heart. He slowly hopped towards the bush. Squeaky waited nearby. *WHOOSH! RUSTLE!* Pip peeked inside. Guess what he saw? Not a monster! Just a busy little bird, flapping its wings and building a nest!
Pip giggled. "It's just a bird!" he said. Squeaky smiled. "You were brave, Pip! You found out the truth." Pip learned that day: It's okay to be a little scared, but it's brave to find out what's really there!
