The Mad Forest

All the animals were very angry! Men didn’t stop destroying the forest: cutting dwon trees, dump trash onto the floor, cause fires, pollute the lakes and rivers ... This had to stop!
On that afternoon, the birds had been calling all the inhabitants of the forest for a meeting to take place that night, near the lake.

The trees were the first to appear, clumsy and noisy, with big steps because they only walked occasionally.

When everyone was already gathered, the Wolf, the chairman, began his speech:

- Friends, this is impossible! I suggest that we should ask children for help and together we will find a solution!

- Supported! - Some shouted.

- Good idea! - Exclaimed others.

It was decided then that in the next morning, it would be once again the birds to give the news to all the kids of the village. When Peter woke up, he saw a bird that said:

- You gotta help us save the forest.

The boy did not know why. The bird explained to him that Man was destroying the forest. Pedro said he had to warn the other boys. They had to go to their homes.

In the afternoon, everybody gathered near the lake.

The Wolf was the first to speak:

- We are very sad. Our house is almost destroyed! What shall we do?
Pedro had an idea:

- We will destroy the homes of the men to see if they like it.
All the inhabitants of the forest agreed. The next day, they attacked. Of course, Man did not like it a bit. When they saw their homes destroyed, they realized they should not spoil the forest. They stopped cutting down the trees, polluting the soil and the rivers and destroying the animals’ homes. From that day on, Man, animals and trees were very happy.
