Lena was a young girl who loved to explore the woods near her home. She often went there with her dog, Max, and her best friend, Tom. They liked to play games, collect flowers, and look for animals. One day, they decided to go deeper into the woods than they had ever gone before. They wanted to see what secrets the forest had to offer.
They walked for a long time, until they came across a clearing. There, they saw something that made them gasp. It was a group of purple mushrooms with orange spots. They looked like something out of a fairy tale. Lena was curious and wanted to get closer. She ran towards the mushrooms, followed by Max and Tom.
As they approached the mushrooms, they noticed that there was something shiny under them. It was a gold coin. Lena picked it up and examined it. It had strange symbols on both sides. She wondered what it was and where it came from. She showed it to Tom, who was also intrigued. He suggested that they take it home and try to find out more about it.
Lena agreed, but before they could leave, they heard a voice. It was soft and sweet, like a bell. It said, “Hello, children. You have found the magic coin. It can grant any wish you desire. But be careful, for it can only be used once. Choose wisely, and make sure your wish is pure and good.”
Lena, Max, and Tom were stunned. They looked around, but they could not see anyone. They realized that the voice was coming from the coin. They wondered if it was telling the truth, or if it was a trick. They decided to test it. Tom said, “I wish for a big chocolate cake.” He hoped that the coin would make his wish come true.
But nothing happened. The coin did not glow, or make a sound, or change in any way. The voice said, “I’m sorry, but that is not a pure and good wish. It is selfish and greedy. You must think of something better.”
Tom felt embarrassed. He realized that he had wasted his chance. He gave the coin back to Lena and said, “You try it. Maybe you can think of something better.”
Lena thought hard. She wanted to make a good wish, but she did not know what to wish for. She looked at the coin, and then at the woods. She saw how beautiful and peaceful they were. She felt a connection with nature, and a love for all living things. She said, “I wish for the forest to be protected and preserved. I wish for all the creatures in the forest to be happy and healthy. I wish for the forest to be a place of magic and wonder for everyone who visits it.”
As soon as she said that, the coin glowed brightly. It emitted a warm and gentle light that filled the clearing. The voice said, “That is a pure and good wish. It is generous and kind. You have made the right choice. Your wish is granted.”
The coin disappeared from Lena’s hand. She felt a surge of joy and gratitude. She looked around and saw that the forest had changed. The trees looked greener, the flowers looked brighter, and the animals looked friendlier. She heard birds singing, squirrels chattering, and fairies giggling. She felt a breeze on her face, and a warmth in her heart. She smiled and hugged Max and Tom. They smiled and hugged her back. They knew that they had witnessed something amazing. They had found the magic coin, and they had made the forest a better place. The end.
