CHAPTER FOUR

Picnic Time!

Poppy’s heart pounded as she glided toward Dewdrop Spring.

“Hey—look at meeee!” Coco called to her friends down below.

The three fairy animals were very surprised indeed when they looked up and saw Coco on Poppy’s back.

“How did you get to ride on a Petal Pony?” squeaked the Moss Mouse.

“That looks like fun!” chuckled the Bud Bunny.

“Come down and start the picnic! I’m starving!” shouted the Holly Hamster, rubbing his furry tummy.

Poppy’s blue wings glimmered as she circled in the air, looking for somewhere to land. She felt very shy with all of Coco’s friends watching her.

Next to the picnic spot there was a grassy bank covered with bright yellow buttercups. Poppy fluttered down toward it.

“I’ll drop you here, Coco,” she whinnied. As soon as her hooves touched the ground, she carefully lifted Coco down with her tail. “I’ve got to go now,” she explained hurriedly. “I’ve got loads of work to do and—”

But it was too late.

The Bud Bunny came hopping toward them through the buttercups. “Coco—who’s your friend?” she asked.

Poppy hid her face in her mane. If only she’d flown away more quickly!

Then the Moss Mouse scampered up, his long whiskers twitching. “Are you all right, Coco?”

“I got stuck in a tree!” Coco explained. “I was trying to pick some pears for our picnic, but my wing got caught. It was horrible.” Coco’s tail fluffed up like a feather duster at the thought.

“That sounds awful. Oh, look, here comes hungry Harry!” said the bunny as the Holly Hamster trotted up on his chubby little legs.

“Who said pears? Did you say pears?” he said to Coco, puffing out his cheeks. “I love pears. Did you bring some?”
