Once upon a time, there was a clever cat named Tom. He lived in a small house with his best friend, a little girl named Lily. They loved to play together all day long. One of their favorite games was to make loops with a long piece of string.
One sunny day, they were playing with the string in the garden. They made a big loop and put it on the ground. Tom jumped in and out of the loop, and Lily laughed and clapped her hands. They were having so much fun!
Then, a friendly bird flew down and sat on a nearby tree branch. The bird watched Tom and Lily play and wanted to join them. The bird could speak, so it said, "Hello, friends! Can I play with you?" Tom and Lily were surprised but happy to have a new friend. They all played with the loop together, and they had a wonderful day.
