In the middle of a deep forest was a strange cottage. It was built in the crown of a tree, so few people could see it. It was the home of Carlos the robber. He was good. He was more likely to keep an eye on passers-by and only robbed those who had too much money, didn’t want to share and selfishly kept it for themselves. His hair was cut very short and he had a short beard on his face. He had a cute little scar near his eyebrows, and he charmed everyone with his beautiful big eyes. But he had one problem.

The people who lived by the pond got so used to it that they couldn’t sleep without it. But one evening something was different.

The little tractor was a handy helper, but he was naughty, stubborn and sometimes did things his own way. And that was not good.

Once upon a time, many, many years ago, a man decided to plant a tree. He chose a beautiful meadow near the town, dug a hole and planted a small tree in it. He took care of it and went to check on it every day. The tree grew beautifully and grew stronger. The man was happy about it, so he planted another, and then another.
