What a beau­ti­ful mor­ning in spring. The sun is shi­ning and it is warm.

Maya, the hard-​working bee, gets up very early.

She vi­sits her fri­end Ar­nold. Ar­nold is a lazy la­dy­bug. He likes to sleep very long.

Maya says, Good mor­ning Ar­nold, wake up! I want to get food from the sweetest flow­er.

Ar­nold opens his eyes and looks at Maya. I want to find a big green leaf with some fat lice on it.

So Maya flies away. She looks for a me­a­dow.

Ar­nold can­not fly so fast. He craw­ls slow­ly th­rough the grass to find some food.

Maya and Ar­nold are not the only ani­mals who want to have break­fast. Tipsy, the early bird, also looks for so­me­thing to eat.

Ar­nold sees Tipsy and thinks, Plea­se don't eat me. Eat a worm.

Ar­nold sees a big toad­stool. He hides under it.

This is like an um­brel­la. No­bo­dy can find me here, Ar­nold says to hims­elf.

In that mo­ment big clouds cover the sun.

All ani­mals find hide from the rain.

It is sunny in the mor­ning.

Maya,the but­ter­fly, gets up very early.

Mayas fri­end Ar­nold also gets up very early.

Maya wants to collect pol­len from the most beau­ti­ful flow­er.

Ar­nold pre­fers to eat worms.

Maya looks for the per­fect tree.

Ar­nold craw­ls th­rough the grass.

Tipsy is a snail.

Ar­nold is afraid of Tipsy.

Ar­nold hides under a leaf.

The toad­stool is like an um­brel­la.

Big clouds cover the sus.

All ani­mals play in the rain.
