Mabel the tiny mouse adjusted her warm red scarf and stepped outside into the bright meadow. Today, she wanted to see where all her dear friends lived.

She scampered toward a tall apple tree and looked high up into the leafy green branches. Someone cheerful was singing a sweet morning song.

High in the tree, Robin sat inside a round woven nest made of soft twigs and dry grass. Mabel waved happily at Robin's cozy home.

Next, Mabel trotted over to the bright flower garden and heard a gentle humming sound. Bizzy flew through the air, buzzing a friendly greeting.

Bizzy hovered right beside a golden hive hanging securely under a wide wooden branch. Mabel learned that busy bees keep their sweet honey inside.

Mabel walked down a gentle grassy hill and stopped beside a round, dark hole in the soft earth. She wondered who lived under the ground.

Thistle poked his soft gray head out of the cool, deep burrow. "Welcome to my burrow!" said Thistle. "It's cozy and safe under the ground."

Mabel scurried over to the sparkling pond where round green lily pads floated gently on the water. A shiny head popped up to say hello.

Finny swished her golden fins. "The pond is my home," she bubbled. "I love to swim all day!"

And so, Mabel scurried all the way back to her warm oak-tree hole, curled into her soft bed, and smiled because her own home was best of all.
