Once upon a time, in a big garden, there was a little girl named Lily. She was very independent and liked to do things by herself. One day, Lily saw a tree with small, round fruits on it. She did not know what they were, so she asked her mom, "Mommy, what are these?"
Her mom replied, "Those are prunes, Lily. They are good for you, but you need to ask for help when picking them."
Lily wanted to pick the prunes by herself, but she remembered her mom's words. She waited for her mom to come and help her. They picked the prunes together and had a fun time.
Later, Lily's friend, Tim, came to play. He saw the prunes and wanted to pick them too. But he did not ask for help. He tried to climb the tree and fell down. He got a big boo-boo and cried.
Lily learned that it is good to be independent, but sometimes it is better to ask for help. This made her a wise and happy girl.
