5 pp · Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals
Twinkle

When Twinkle seeks refuge in the cool forest for an afternoon nap, a visit from Queenie interrupts his rest with urgent news—the bees' hive needs his help. Twinkle learns that Southwind, afflicted with mumps, is using oversized bellows that create winds too strong for the bees to gather honey, so he sets out to find smaller ones. With assistance from Mr. Lightning, Twinkle returns with just the right tool, restoring gentle breezes and allowing the busy bees to return to their work—and rewarding his kindness with the sweetest prize.
