The hare was very worried. She was approaching Easter and she had a lot to do. Her work consisted of painting thousands and thousands of eggs to give to children. Everyone knows that the “Easter Egg” is a widespread tradition. The hare, however, already old, felt very tired and with little energy. Time passed quickly and there was still a lot to do. So she decided to get to work. But after a while she fell asleep soundly. Poor thing! So kind was she.
The hare was very dear to all the inhabitants of the forest. They quickly realized what had happened and met urgently to see what they could do.
- I already know! said the ant. We can paint the eggs ourselves while she rests. When she wakes up and sees all the work done, she'll think something magical has happened. She deserves our help. It's so kind!
No sooner said than done. All the inhabitants of the forest went to work and a few hours later all the eggs were painted. Seeing that the hare was beginning to wake up, they soon disappeared, not wanting to be seen. The hare woke up and, what was her amazement, to find that the job was done!
“Oh! That's weird! Who will have done all this? she asked herself, surprised and happy.
To this day, she believes a kind fairy helped her. And actually, you're right. The "friendship fairy" also works miracles, don't you think?
