Listen to the story about Drippy the Traveler!
Drippy lived on a fluffy cloud with her sisters.
They grew bigger and bigger until the cloud became heavy.
One morning the cloud turned into rain, and Drippy landed on a daisy leaf, then rolled right into a lively little stream!
The stream carried Drippy to a beautiful lake.
She had never seen so much water in her life!
She saw Minnows swimming around and looking at her with curiosity.
Drippy wanted to say hello, but suddenly the warm sun touched her with a bright ray and turned her into invisible steam.
"I am flying!" she whispered, rising up to join the white cloud heading to the Snowy Kingdom.
Drippy flew for a long time until she saw snowy mountains in the distance.
"Why is everything so white?" she wondered.
She jumped from the cloud, and the Frosty Wind quickly caught her, turning our little drop into a beautiful snowflake!
She looked around at millions of other amazing snowflakes and smiled: "Now I see why everything is so white!"
