Dans un petit village entouré de collines verdoyantes, un mystère revenait chaque année : qui réveillait le printemps ? Léa et Tom, deux frères et sœurs curieux, avaient remarqué qu’un matin, sans prévenir, les fleurs s’ouvraient, les oiseaux chantaient plus fort et l’air sentait bon le miel et l’herbe fraîche. — Cette fois, on va découvrir qui apporte le printemps ! déclara Tom, déterminé. Armés de leur carnet et d’un crayon, ils partirent explorer la forêt. En marchant, ils croisèrent Dame Coccinelle qui se reposait sur une feuille. — Dame Coccinelle, est-ce vous qui réveillez le printemps ? demanda Léa. — Oh non, répondit-elle en riant. Mais quand il arrive, je profite du soleil pour étirer mes ailes rouges et noires ! Plus loin, ils rencontrèrent M. Hérisson, qui bâillait à s’en décrocher la mâchoire. — Est-ce vous, M. Hérisson, qui ramenez le printemps ? — Pas du tout ! J’hibernais sous un tas de feuilles, et c’est la chaleur qui m’a réveillé. Les enfants continuèrent leur quête jusqu’à la clairière où dansaient des papillons multicolores. — Peut-être est-ce vous, les papillons, qui apportez le printemps ? — Nous ? Non, mais quand il arrive, nous sortons de nos cocons pour colorer le ciel ! Déçus, Léa et Tom s’assirent sous un grand chêne. — Personne ne sait qui réveille le printemps… soupira Tom. Soudain, une douce brise caressa leurs visages et une voix murmurante s’éleva. — C’est la nature tout entière qui le réveille. Le soleil se fait plus chaud, la pluie nourrit la terre, les bourgeons grandissent, et petit à petit, tout s’éveille… Les enfants sourirent. Le printemps n’avait pas un seul gardien, mais un orchestre entier de saisons, de vent, de lumière et de vie. Heureux de leur découverte, ils rentrèrent chez eux, prêts à célébrer le retour du printemps en plantant des fleurs et en construisant un nichoir pour les oiseaux. Et depuis ce jour, à chaque printemps, ils prenaient le temps d’admirer la magie du réveil de la nature.

في إحدى الغابات الجميلة، كان هناك أرنب صغير يُدعى أرنوب. أرنوب كان أرنبًا مميزًا بمهاراته؛ فهو يقفز عاليًا جدًا، يتشقلب في الهواء بخفة، ويجري بسرعة فائقة حتى أنه كان يفوز دائمًا في السباقات مع أصدقائه. ذات يوم، اقترح أرنوب على أصدقائه الأرانب أن يتسابقوا في القفز العالي، قائلًا لهم بثقة: "سترون أنني الأفضل وسأفوز بسهولة!" وفعلاً، فاز أرنوب في السباق. لكنه بدأ يضحك على أصدقائه ويتفاخر بمهاراته، مما جعلهم يشعرون بالانزعاج. ومع مرور الوقت، بدأ الأصدقاء يبتعدون عنه وقالوا عنه إنه مغرور. في البداية، لم يهتم أرنوب لذلك وقال لنفسه: "لا يهم، فأنا الأفضل على أي حال!" لكنه مع الوقت، شعر بالوحدة. لم يعد لديه أصدقاء يشاركونه اللعب، وبدأ يتساءل: "ما فائدة القفز عاليًا إن كنت وحيدًا ولا أحد يشاركني فرحتي؟" عاد أرنوب إلى المنزل حزينًا. لاحظه والده وسأله: "ما بالك يا أرنوب؟ أراك مكتئبًا اليوم." فأجاب أرنوب: "أصدقائي لا يريدون اللعب معي. الجميع يبتعد عني." ابتسم والده وقال له: "يا بني، من الجميل أن تكون فخورًا بمهاراتك، ولكن لا يجب أن تجعل ذذلك سببًا للغرور. علينا أن نُقدِّر مهارات الآخرين ونحترمها. كل أرنب لديه شيء يُميِّزه، فلا أحد أفضل من الآخر. علينا أن نتعاون ونتشارك بدلًا من التباهي." فهم أرنوب كلام والده، وقال: "ماذا أفعل الآن؟ كيف أستعيد أصدقائي؟" أجابه والده: "ابدأ بالاقتراب من أصدقائك. عندما ترى أحدهم يلعب وحده، شاركه اللعب، وكن صديقًا لطيفًا وداعمًا." أخذ أرنوب بنصيحة والده. بدأ يتعامل مع أصدقائه بلطف، ولم يعد يتباهى بمهاراته. صار يُشجِّعهم بدلًا من التفاخر عليهم. ومع الوقت، عادت الصداقة بينه وبين الأرانب، وأصبح لديهم الكثير من اللحظات الججميلة معًا. وتعلّم أرنوب درسًا مهمًا: أن الصداقة والمحبة أهم من الفوز، وأن التعاون والتواضع يجعل الجميع سعداء
