Once there was this little girl…
She had big doe brown eyes and a beauty mark on her upper right cheek. Her name was Ella Rose. One day she was walking down by the creek searching for her friendly frogs. Little did she know they were looking for her too! She didn’t see them anywhere and thought to herself, “Hmmm… I wonder where silly Squeaker and Scooter went?” She searched long and hard for her little guys.

While searching she stumbled upon a fluffy white bunny. “Oh my fluffy wuffy aren’t you the cutest bunny in the world!” Ella said as she slowly walked up to him hoping not to scare the hare. “What is your name? Is it fluffy? Because you are the fluffiest animal I’ve ever seen!” The bunny said, “my name is Lucky.  I am sad today because I am lost far away from my home. Maybe you could help me?” “Of course I will!”, Ella said excitedly. 

While approaching a forest it started to get cloudy in the sky. Grey clouds with no more sunshine to help lead Lucky back to his home. All of a sudden, “BOOM! BASH! BOOM!” the thunder was starting to roll in, which meant rain was on its way! “What should we do Ella? I’m so far away from home already and now I’ll never find my family!” Lucky shed a few tears when Ella said, “Oh Lucky it’s ok, don’t carry a frown on your face, I promise I will help you find your home as best as I can.” They started feeling tiny sprinkles of rain on their heads and shoulders. Oh no! It was raining! “Quick Lucky, follow me!” Lucky hurried over to her for shelter and she covered him with her jacket. Together they ran as fast as they could. All of a sudden Ella saw an old cabin towards the outskirts of the forest. “Come on Lucky, hurry it’s starting to lightening!” They finally made it through the door and found refuge. 

After they walked in they both dropped on the floor from exhaustion and fear. “Whewwww…”, said Ella Rose, “that was a close one!”. “What should we do?” asked Lucky. Ella Rose pondered and pondered for a few seconds then she said, “I know! We should play a game!” Lucky said, “Cool! Can we play hopscotch? We can use chalk on the cement floor. I was born to hop and hop and hop!” Ella thought to herself…”hmmm…Is that really fair? He’s a bunny and he is way better at hopscotch than I will ever be. I wonder if he would like to play a rhyming game?” Ella said, “hey Lucky do you want to play a rhyming game?” “What’s that?”, Lucky said. “It’s a fun game my mommy made up when I was only 8 years old. First, I say a three words and you have to try to rhyme it with your own three words.” Lucky pondered and pondered. Finally, he said, “Wow that sounds like a lot of fun, let’s do it!!”

Ella took the first turn. “Ok, are you ready?” Ella’s first three words were, “I flew a plane”. Lucky immediately said, “I am insane”. Now it was Lucky’s turn. “do humans snore?” Ella shook her head up and down and said, “yes…on the floor!” Ella said, “you are funny!” Lucky said quickly, “Well…I’m a bunny!” They both laughed!

By the time the game was over the rain had subsided and the sun slowly peeked through the window. “Now is a good time to leave and go find your home”, said Ella. About twenty minutes later they walked past the creek again. I heard, “ELLA!! YAY WE FOUND YOU!!!” Ella said, “OH MY GOODNESS! SCOOTER AND SQUEAKER! I FINALLY FOUND YOU!!!”  She picked them both up and jumped with excitement. Now she felt much better and could fully concentrate on finding Lucky’s home. All of a sudden they saw people walking towards them not too far behind the frogs. “She looks familiar”, Ella said. All of a sudden Lucky’s eyes got so wide, looking like his head would explode! “IT’S MY FAMILY!!”, screamed Lucky. He hopped as fast as he could and before you knew it he was in the arms of his favorite little boy Joey. Ella thought to herself, “hmmmm…they are not bunnies at all! They are humans!” She said, “I had no idea you actually meant your home was with a family of people, not bunnies!” Little Joey was crying and said, “Lucky, please don’t hop away ever again, I love you so much!”  Ella said curiously to the mom, “you look so familiar to me. Do I know you?” The woman said, “Yes! The second I saw you I thought I knew you too! My name is Marie and you walk down to my pet store, Pet Haven, all the time for crickets for your froggies.” Just then it hit Ella. “Now I get it! Squeaker and Scooter went looking for me at your store. That’s when the frogs found out your family was already searching for your white fluffy wuffy bunny.” “Well isn’t it a small world!”, said Marie. 

So after a long day of running, playing and searching, Lucky was finally home with his family. Ella too found comfort in finding her little guys. 
From that day forward, Lucky, Ella, Scooter and Squeaker became friends. Ella walked up to Pet Haven at least three times a week and would hang out with Marie and play with all the little critters in her store. The frogs had a new favorite game…THE RHYMING GAME!! 

“Hey Ella, don’t forget lucky!” Ella replied, “always stay plucky!”
Ella said loudly, “life is sure good, huh?!?” They played together all summer long...

***The word "PLUCKY" means brave***
