NAME:

the giant dragonfly

Lilia, a tiny dragonfly, has just discovered a new lake. Radiant, it zigzags between reeds and flowering water lilies.
A bunch of mosquitoes flying around the fence and making fun of it!
– You're tiny! Tiny! – they repeat, joking.
Not for that Lilia will let a bunch of mosquitoes bother her!
Hurry, go home to look for her friends, the little dragonflies. All together form a flying pyramid and return to the lake, humming with challenge.

- A monster! - scream the mosquitoes, in panic!
- Let's run away!
– How fearful! – exclaim the dragonflies.
Bravo, Lily! These mean mosquitoes will never again dare to make fun of you!
