A story to share together
Otto, Daisy, and the Berry Picnic
Two little bird friends, Otto and Daisy, line up their berries to see who has more and who has fewer, then share so they both have the same.

Otto the bluebird and Daisy the yellow bird were best friends. Today, they flew happily across the sunny meadow to look for sweet berries.

They found a lovely flat tree stump in the warm grass. It was the perfect little table for their sunny morning picnic.

Otto dropped his sweet red berries onto the stump. He had two juicy berries in a little row.

Daisy emptied her tiny leaf onto the stump too. She had four shiny red berries in her row.

The rows looked different! Otto tilted his head and wondered who had more berries to eat.

Daisy chirped happily. 'Let's line them up, one above the other, so we can compare!'

They lined them up. Otto had two berries. That was fewer. Daisy had four berries. That was more!

Otto felt a tiny bit sad, but Daisy smiled warmly. She gently rolled one berry over to Otto.

Now Otto had three red berries, and Daisy had three red berries. Both little birds had the same!

Then Otto and Daisy ate their berries together. Three and three, the same! What a sweet, fair picnic.
