The Forest Princess and the Little Girl

Aishani Dey, Class 3

Once upon a time there lived a forest queen. The queen had one daughter named

Princess Rosie. Princess Rosie loved to draw and paint. She grew up drawing and
painting things and she liked the places where she could draw and paint in peace. She

loved to stay alone in the forest with trees and forest animals.Then suddenly one day

the queen lost her life and Princess Rosie became the queen of the forest and she

never wanted her empire to be destroyed, so she tried to keep it safe as her mother
did. On her trips to the forest each day, she used to see a little girl planting plants with

lots of love and affection on her face. She liked the girl and her way of planting trees

in the forest.
One day a wood cutter came and started cutting the

trees. Queen Rosie saw it and wanted to stop the wood
cutter from cutting down the forest. She prayed “O God

please help us and the forest”.

Just when she was thinking what to do, and was very
sad, she suddenly saw the little girl running towards the

wood cutter with a big knife in her hand. She was there

to save the forest. She requested the wood cutter “Don’t
cut trees down because if you do so, no one will be alive

as we get oxygen from these trees. Plant as many trees

as possible as it will keep all of us healthy.”

In this way, the little girl, whose name was Lily, saved

the forest and the forest people. Queen Rosie was very

happy with the girl and gifted her a beautiful tree house,
where she and her family could stay and also gave her

the duty to take care of the forest.

We should all take care of the trees around us and

should not allow anyone to cut trees. We should plant

many trees so we can get oxygen from them.
