Golden leaves danced in the crisp breeze. Nutty the little squirrel picked up her empty woven basket, ready to hunt for sweet acorns.

Beneath a tall maple tree, she spotted a smooth treasure. Nutty gently touched the cap and smiled brightly. 'One smooth acorn,' she whispered happily.

Nutty hopped over a soft patch of green moss. She tapped two more nuts with her tiny paws. 'One, two, three acorns!'

She tucked them into her basket and skipped ahead. Near a flat gray rock, she gently tapped another. 'Now I have four acorns!' she cheered.

Beside a trickling brook, Nutty found one more round treat. She touched its polished shell with care. 'Count with me: one, two, three, four, five!'

Nutty paused and wondered how many more she could find. She tapped a fresh nut hiding under a leaf. 'That makes six delicious acorns!'

A friendly breeze blew, revealing another two shiny caps. Nutty touched each one carefully. 'Seven and eight! My little basket is filling up fast.'

Nutty took a deep breath and looked under a mushroom. She touched a tiny acorn gently with her claw. 'Nine shiny treasures for winter!'

Right beside her cozy hollow tree, Nutty saw the biggest acorn yet. She touched its smooth cap proudly. 'Look at that, number ten!'

And so, Nutty lined them up in two rows of five. She touched each one and counted, from one to ten. 'Ten acorns!' she cheered.
