Marilyn’s Tale:
Marilyn is just a cheerful, happy go lucky piggy. Her favorite activity is to run and play in the flower beds and woods near her farm. One day, while playing in the tulip beds, Marilyn ran into a tiny creature stuck in the mud (it was difficult to identify as it was seriously covered with muck). “Help!”, the creature said, “I’m stuck!” Marilyn knew just what to do! She took her little piggy nose and scooped the little creature up out of the mud like she was made for it (she was).
She dropped the little creature into a bright red tulip full of morning dew (to clean up) and realized she had saved a Faerie! “Hi, my name is Nixie”, the Faerie said. “I want to give you a gift for saving me”. Marilyn was both surprised and excited, “I’ve always wished I could fly in the clouds and see the forest and flowers from above!” said Marilyn.
Nixie replied, “Then you shall have wings and I shall make them beautiful and amazing, just like you!” Marilyn felt a little “poof” over her back, as if a wind had suddenly blown over her. The next thing she noticed was the beautiful landscape below her, flowers and trees and babbling brooks as far as she could see. “Ohh thank you!” She exclaimed. Nixie just winked and disappeared in a cloud of dust and glitter.
