       Once upon a time there lived a tiny oak sapling in a flat wasteland. All day long the oak sapling danced with the wind and sang with the birds. He had a lot of fun with his friends, but he would also love to make friends with other trees. He looked as far away as possible, looking for a tree that could be his friend, but there were no trees around.

The little girl looked at the oak sapling and asked''Why are you alone ?,Don't you have any friends?''The little oak sapling  said sadly''The birds,the wind,the rain are my friends but I still feel lonely''                                                                   

The girl hugged the little oah sapling again and said ''We can be your friends If you want'' The little oah sapling smiled and said''Yes I want..... ''

    The main component of nature is the forest. We know that wood emits oxygen. It is the source of the existence of living organisms. Deforestation will lead to disruption of live on Earth. So people should not cut down the forest. Plant a lot of trees. 

   The forest is vital. It cleans the air and supplies us with clean water.

                  Trees talk ..

 the trees was speaking, who are better .

The oak boasted:

- My roots go deep into the ground, I have the strong branches .

The apple tree cried out from the garden:

- Brother, you are bragging in vain. Your fruit is only worth the pigs, and my fruit is the king's 

Pine replied to both of them

I am even dressed in fresh pines. With my  peasantI turn on the stove and light the house

    After the children planted the olive tree and the jasmine tree, the oak tree felt so happy that it bloomed. Everybody was very glad that the oak tree didn't feel lonely anymore and they wanted to celebrate with something special. 

    They came up with the idea to make things even more wonderful by planting around the trees colourful flowers.

     "It smells nice here!" there was a thin, cheerful voice in the grass.

     "What's that sound?" the children wondered.

     "I am a hedgehog. I came because I could smell flowers and children's laughter. But I'm really hungry. Can you help me?"

So, the children decided to plant different fruit trees in order to attract different animals and make shelters and food for them.

The hedgehog was puzzled. He thought about what would  happen when the children will no longer bring him food.

A playful redhead squirrel replied:

„-The forest provides food and shelter for all living things! Don't forget this!”

-“Is that so?” 

-“Yes, Mother Nature protects us all!”

    Days, weeks, months, seasons and years passed and the trees planted by the children grew.  

      The little girl and her friends kept visiting all the trees that were now sitting next to each other, feeling like a family with the flowers, the hedgehog, the playful redhead squirrel and many other animals that had made their homes in or around the trees. 

    The tiny oak sapling became a big, strong oak tree, surrounded by more friends than he had ever dreamed of.

           The growingand stronger oak tree had acorns. The little girl and her friends thought of producing new oak saplings from acorns. They collected the acorns that fell on the ground and germinated them. They produced many oak saplings. They planted them near the oak tree. Seeing this, the oak tree was very emotional. Once upon a time, he was suffocating with loneliness, but now he was surrounded by a huge forest. Now the oak saplings had been planted. He was very grateful to the little girl. The oak tree continued its life very happily and peacefully after that.
