Five Forest Friends by Angela Nuttall
“Five Forest Friends” is a heartwarming tale that highlights the values of compassion and harmony among animals residing in a lush forest. The story sheds light on the challenges faced by these creatures due to the reckless deforestation activities carried out by humans, leading to an imbalance in the ecosystem.
Once upon a time, there were four close-knit forest friends, Hoggy the Hedgehog, Mimi the Magpie, High Top the Hare, and Oakley the Owl, who shared a home in a tall and grand oak tree. Together, they spent their days basking in the warm sunbeams and enjoying the gentle breeze that rustled the leaves of their home.
However, their peaceful existence was suddenly shattered when the oak tree was chopped down by humans, leaving the four friends homeless and without a place to call their own.
They search and search for a new place to live, until a kind and generous field mouse, Matilda comes to their aid. She offered her own home, an old and cozy sycamore tree, as a safe haven for the four friends.
The four friends accepted her offer and became a family of five, living happily ever after in their new home.
