Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Emma. Every day, Emma's mum taught her how to do all sorts of fun things.
"Can I learn about doves, Mummy?" asked Emma.
"Why, of course!" said Emma's mum. "Do you want to learn about flying doves or about the pretty white doves?"
Emma thought for a moment. "The pretty white doves!" she said.
"Oh, okay then," said Mum. "Come outside with me, and you'll receive a surprise!"
Emma was excited, and they went out to the garden together. When they reached the garden, they spotted a big boring tree with a white dove sitting right on top of one of the branches.
"Look, Emma!" cried Mum. "It's a dove! Reach out your arms and you'll receive it."
Emma held out her arms and the dove fluttered down into them. Emma hugged the dove and went back inside with Mum.
From that day on, Emma and her dove were the best of friends. Even when days were boring, Emma knew she could always count on her dove for company.
