Flying Stars


The Little Teahouse in the Woods




In a peaceful forest, three little mice lived happily. One day, a mysterious large cardboard box fell from the sky and landed right at their doorstep. To their surprise, the box was filled with cans of tea! The clever little mice transformed the box into a cozy teahouse, sharing the fragrant tea with their fellow forest residents.

But one rainy night, a heavy downpour drenched the cardboard teahouse, making it impossible to continue serving tea. Just when the mice were at a loss, the forest community came together—old beavers, moles, hedgehogs, and many others—to help rebuild the teahouse. Soon, the laughter of the forest residents and the soothing aroma of tea filled the air once more.
