The Bunny Who Hopped Toward Help After a Fall – How Bella Showed That Bravery Isn’t Just Big Leaps
Large text for little eyes.
In the sunny meadows of Clover Hill, where daisies danced in the breeze and butterflies fluttered like confetti, lived a gentle bunny named Bella. Bella loved hopping through the tall grass, racing with her friends, and exploring the forest paths just beyond the hill.
But one morning, what started as a playful adventure turned into a true test of courage, and Bella proved that even the smallest bunny can be a big hero.
A Tumble by the Old Oak Tree
Bella was hopping along the forest trail, chasing a ladybug, when she lost her footing near the Old Oak Tree. She slipped on a patch of moss and tumbled down a steep slope, landing with a soft thud at the bottom.
“Ouch…” she winced, trying to stand. Her back leg hurt too much to walk. The forest was quiet, and her friends were too far to hear her. But Bella didn’t panic. She took a deep breath and whispered, “I have to find help.”
Balancing on three legs, Bella began to hop, slowly and carefully, through the woods.
Kindness in the Canopy
Along the way, Bella met Tilly the squirrel, who was gathering acorns. “Bella! You’re hurt!” Tilly squeaked.
“I fell… by the Old Oak Tree,” Bella explained. “Can you help me get to the clearing? My friends might still be there.” Tilly nodded and called to Benny the bluebird, who flew above the trees to look for help. Meanwhile, Tilly stayed by Bella’s side, guiding her through the forest’s twists and turns.
When Bella grew tired, she rested beneath a mushroom patch. Tilly shared her acorns, and Benny returned with news: Bella’s friends were searching for her near Clover Creek!
Bravery by the Brook
They reached the brook just before sunset. The water rushed gently, but the stones were slippery. “I don’t think I can make it across,” Bella whispered.
“Yes, you can,” Tilly said. “You’ve come this far.” With Tilly on one side and Benny guiding from above, Bella made it across, carefully, hop by hop. As she landed on the far side, she saw them, her friends! Ollie the owl, Max the mole, and Daisy the duck ran to her with hugs and worried eyes.
“You’re okay!” Daisy cried. “I had help,” Bella smiled. “And a lot of love.”
A Hero’s Hop
Bella was taken to the Meadow Vet, who wrapped her leg and gave her a cozy carrot snack. She needed a few days of rest, but soon she was hopping again, stronger and braver than ever.
The animals of Clover Hill called her Brave Bunny Bella, the hero who didn’t give up.
She didn’t just wait for help, she hopped toward it. And thanks to her courage, others knew they could be brave too, even when things feel scary.
From that day on, Bella led the forest safety group, teaching young animals how to call for help and be there for one another.
The End !
