Peter has set out on a treasure hunt. Will you care to join him?
The Greatest Treasure
By Amit Garg
One day,
Peter found a treasure map.
“Hurray!
I’m going to find
this treasure and have some adventure!”
He exclaimed.
Peter set off.
He walked a long way
and finally reached a forest.
There he met Lion.
“You are strong and courageous,”
said Peter to Lion.
“Will you come with me
on a treasure hunt?”
Lion agreed
and joined Peter.
The forest was dense
and dark.[Rajesh 1]
Peter was afraid, but
with Lion by his side,
he made it through.
When the two finally
reached the mountain,
they met Eagle.
“You have excellent vision
and can alert us
to dangers,”
said Peter to Eagle.
“Will you come with us?
We’re looking for a treasure!”
Eagle agreed and joined
Peter and Lion.
The mountains were tall
and craggy.
Lion slipped,
but Peter was swift enough to give him a hand
and pull him up.
Eagle, with his sharp vision,
watched every step
they took.
Soon,
they reached the valley below
where they met Sheep.
“Will you join us
in our search for a treasure?”
Peter asked Sheep.
“And keep us warm
when it’s cold?”
Sheep agreed
and joined Peter,
Lion and Eagle.
A cold wind swept across the endless meadow.
They all huddled
against Sheep, who kept them warm and cozy.
The four finally
reached the desert,
where they met Camel.
“You are called the ship of the desert,”
said Peter to Camel.
“Will you help us get across
and join the treasure hunt too?”
Camel agreed.
Peter, Lion and Sheep
mounted the camel
and set off happily across the vast desert,
with Eagle enjoying the spectacle
from above.
Camel began galloping
and everybody
cheered with excitement.
Crossing the desert
on Camel’s back
was thrilling!
The five finally
reached the ocean,
where they met Turtle.
“Can you help us cross the ocean?”
Peter asked Turtle.
“We are on a treasure hunt.”
Turtle agreed
and joined
Peter, Lion, Eagle
Sheep, and Camel.
The rough waves almost drowned the party,
but Turtle skillfully
transported them across.
They met Owl
on the other side.
Owl spoke
from his ancient wisdom:
“Congratulations,
you have found the treasure.”
“Where is it?”
they all exclaimed in surprise.
“Together you have passed the forest,
climbed the mountains dared the valley,
braved the desert and crossed the ocean.
You would never have done it
without one another.”
They all looked at each other
and realized that
Owl was right -
they had found friendship!
Indeed,
they had found the greatest treasure ever!
