CHAPTER 1

Through this adventure, Michael learns how important it is to listen to his mommy and he also learns of the different kinds of animals that live in the Mystical Forest with him.

Michael is a cute baby squirrel that lives in the Mystical Forest. Michael loves spending his days playing outside with his mommy. Today was a beautiful day and he asked his mommy if they could play outside? His mommy smiled and said, "you are old enough to go outside and play by yourself, as long as you play near the house!" She also reminded him that he was to never go near the river! Michael quickly agreed with his mommy and ran as fast as he could out the door.

While Michael was having fun rolling in the leaves, he looked up and noticed an eagle flying high above him. He was so amazed!! He has never seen an eagle before! He watched the eagle for a few minutes until the eagle flew down by the river and out of Michael's sight.

Michael was so interested in the eagle, that he started running towards the river! He wanted to see where the eagle had flown too.

Suddenly he stopped running. He remembered what his mommy had said to him about going near the river! Yet he had to know where the eagle had flown too!

He thought to himself, "maybe if I just stand on the edge of the of the river bank and not get too close to the water, I could still watch the eagle fly!

He slowly crept down the side of the steep river bank. He was half way down when to his surprise, the whole bank started to crumble! Michael tumbled all the way down to the deep river!

There was a huge splash and Michael was gone!! The fast river had carried him far away! Michael was coughing and choking on the waters that rippled over his head!!

When the river started to calm down, he was able to look up and grab a hold of a few branches that had gathered on the side of the river. He pulled himself out of the water and collapse on the edge of the muddy river bank. He was completely exhausted and needed to catch his breath!!

After a few minutes, Michael sat up and looked around him. Nothing looked familiar to him. He felt so alone and he was very scared!! So scared that he started to cry! He didn't know where he was and he needed his mommy!!

A turtle on the other side of the river bank had heard Michael's crying. He made his way over to Michael. He looked up and asked "what is wrong"? "Why all the tears? Michael sniffled and wiped the tears from his eyes.

He told Mr. Turtle how he had fallen down the river bank and he was lost!! Michael was so upset he started to cry again!!

Mr. Turtle felt really sad for the little baby squirrel. He knew he had to do something. He cleared his throat and kindly offered to help Michael find his way back home.

Michael was so happy!! He dried his tears and thanked Mr. Turtle for helping him find his home!!.

As Michael was walking with Mr. Turtle he noticed that Mr. Turtle moved very slow!! Michael asked Mr. Turtle if he was hurt? Mr. Turtle said no, why do you ask? Michael replied, "because you walk very slow!!"
