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

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!
