The magic garden was in a school playground. It was very pretty.
Sunflowers and roses stood high against the wall. There were
also marigolds, poppies and pansies.
The sunshine fell on this garden more than on any other and
the flowers danced and sang happily. They said to one another,
“We have hundreds of little gardeners.” They were the children
from the school.
One sunny morning the flowers were talking to the birds.
“I love all the children, but I love the dear little ones
most of all,” said a poppy. “I like them to bring their
watering cans and water my thirsty roots.”
“Yes,” said the marigolds, “the boys are good to us too.
They dig the ground so well!”
“We love the little children,” said a tiny bird. They are kind
and they bring bread for us.”
All the flowers said, We must work hard to make our dresses
very pretty, for the children will be here soon.”
The sun said, “I will help you also, for nothing pleases me
better than to see the children running about in the golden
sunshine.”
Suddenly, the children came out laughing and singing, and
the flowers stopped their songs to listen to them.
“Oh, look at the tall sunflower!” said one child, and the
sunflower lifted its head very proudly.
Another child said, “I love the marigold in its golden dress.”
The marigold smiled happily.
It was indeed a magic garden
because it had fairies too. They
danced and sang sweet songs which
only the children could hear.
After a time the fairies came out
dancing and talked with the children.
Their dresses were made of flowers
and their wings of sunshine.
The magic garden was quiet that
night. The flowers and birds were
asleep and dreaming of the next day
when the children would come again.
