Letter A, a
An Alphabet Adventure with the Little Bunny
One morning, the little Bunny woke up very early. To his surprise, the letter A stood right in front of him, glowing in beautiful, shimmering colors.
“Hello,” said the letter. “My name is A. I’m the first letter of the alphabet. We, the letters, are here to help you learn to read and write.”
“I’m just a little bunny,” Bunny said shyly. “Will you be my friend?”
“Of course!” said Mr. A with a smile. “All the letters of the alphabet will be your friends. Your journey to becoming literate starts with us.”
“Does that mean I’m illiterate now?” asked Bunny.
“Yes,” replied Mr. A gently. “But not for long! You’ll learn quickly.”
A Bit of History
“Long ago, people shared stories and knowledge only by speaking. But as time passed, stories got lost or changed. Then humans began drawing pictures to tell stories. From those drawings, writing was born — and with writing came letters, like me!”
“Do you know any words that start with A?”
Bunny nodded proudly: “Address, again, age, agency, all, always, aunt, army, ask, asleep.”
“Well done!” said Mr. A. “Now let’s learn how to write the letter A.”
Bunny’s Morning Routine
“Okay,” said Bunny, “but first I need to wash, exercise, eat breakfast, and thank my mom.”
Mr. A chuckled. “What a polite little bunny! May I pat your head?” He gently stroked Bunny’s fur.
Bunny got ready, and then they went to the kitchen. Mama Hare was already there.
“You’re up early, my baby,” she said.
“Look, Mama!” Bunny beamed. “Letter A is my new friend. He’s going to teach me how to read and write!”
“We’re also going to play together today,” added Mr. A.
“That’s wonderful,” Mama Hare smiled. “Now sit down for breakfast.”
“I don’t eat — I’m a letter,” said Mr. A. “But I’ll keep you company while you eat. You must stay healthy!”
A Walk in the Park
After breakfast, Bunny and Mr. A went for a walk in the park. They walked, then ran joyfully through the trees.
Suddenly, they found a small bundle of money.
“Who could have lost this?” Bunny asked. He called out three times, but no one answered.
“What should we do?” asked Mr. A.
“I remember what Mama does,” said Bunny. “If no one comes for it, she takes it to the lost and found. That way, the owner can come and get it later.”
“That’s a very fair and thoughtful solution,” said Mr. A. “Let’s do that.”
They took the money to the lost and found and then rode their bicycles through the sunshine.
A Race and a Puppy
A puppy nearby was riding a tricycle.
“Want to race?” the puppy barked.
“If you fall behind, you must go home,” Bunny warned. “We’re going far, and if you get lost, your mom will be very sad.”
“You won’t catch me!” shouted the puppy.
But Bunny and Mr. A pedaled fast and zoomed ahead. The puppy turned the other way, still giggling, “Told you!”
A Visit to Daddy
“Let’s visit the greenhouse where my dad works,” said Bunny.
“My dad grows delicious vegetables and fruits. Want to try some?”
“Let’s first write some more words that start with A,” said Mr. A.
They reached the greenhouse. Daddy Hare welcomed them with a warm smile.
“A very special guest has come today,” he said. “Mr. A is the first of all the letters!”
