34. The Poor
Bunny’s Magic
Present
By Pedro Pablo
Sacristan

35. Once upon a time there was a place
where animals were suffering greatly
from drought and hunger. A very poor
bunny was walking sadly through the
fields when, all of a sudden, a wizard
appeared in front of him. The wizard
offered the bunny a bag filled with little
bouquets of flowers.

36. "They are magical, and they're even more
magical if you know how to use them properly",
said the wizard. The bunny was dying of hunger,
but he decided not to eat the bouquets. He
wanted to put them to good use.
On his way home, the bunny met a very old and
very poor sheep who could hardly walk any
more. "Can you spare me something?" asked
the sheep.

37. The bunny had nothing except his bouquets,
and since they were magical, he was
reluctant to give them to the sheep. But he
remembered how his parents had always
taught him to share everything; so he pulled
a bouquet out of the bag and gave it to the
sheep. As soon as he did this, the bunch
shone with a thousand colors. Magic was at
work.

38. The bunny continued on his way, feeling both
happy and a bit annoyed. He had given away
one of the bouquets, but at the same time it
was obvious that the sheep needed it more than
he did. As he continued his journey, the very
same thing happened to the bunny when he
met a blind duck and then a lame cockerel.
When the bunny arrived home, he had only one
magical bouquet left.

39. He told his parents all about what had
happened with the wizard, and his parents
were very proud of the bunny's behavior.
He was about to pull out the final bouquet,
when his little brother arrived home,
crying with hunger. The bunny gave his
brother the magical bouquet.

40. At that moment, with a great rumble of
thunder, the wizard appeared again. He asked
the bunny "Where are the magical bouquets I
gave you? What have you done with them?" The
bunny was frightened and he started to
apologize. But the wizard interrupted, saying
"Didn't I tell you that if you used them well
they'd be even more magical? Well, go outside
and see what you've done!"

41. The bunny went out, shaking. And what he
saw was that, thanks to the way he had
used his magical bouquets, for as far as
the eye could see the whole countryside
had turned into wonderful, green
farmland. Farmland with enough water
and food to feed all the animals!

42. And the bunny felt very
happy that he had acted as
he had, and that the magic
of his generosity would bring
happiness to everyone.

43. Answer the following question about the
selection:
1. To whom did the wizard give his magic bag?
2. To whom did the bunny tell his problem?
3. Where did the animals go to look for food?
4. Where did the Bunny get the bouquet of
flowers?
