Once upon a time, there was a jolly little girl. Every day, she would play in the sunshine for hours and hours. One day, she decided to go to her special spot, all her own and far away from the other kids.
She ran and ran until she reached it - a mineshaft. She knew it was hers because of the little sign she had made and put up. into the hole she went, humming a happy tune.
She explored for a long time, walking through the tunnel and looking at the sparkling rocks. After all her exploring, the little girl felt so tired, so she lay down in a corner and had a rest.
She stayed there until the sun started to go down, and when she arrived home, it was dark and cold. She smiled to herself, thinking of the jolly time she had while she was at her mine, and went to bed, dreaming of the adventures she would have the next day.
