It was a sunny morning at Doc’s Learning Tree. Birds chirped, leaves rustled, and Doc the Owl was busy sorting lesson plans near her favorite tree.
Suddenly, she noticed something strange — a shiny envelope half-buried under the roots!
Doc adjusted her glasses and gently pulled the envelope free.
“Hmm… there’s no name on it,” she said aloud. “But it’s sealed tight. I wonder what’s inside.”
Doc carefully opened the envelope and pulled out a small piece of paper. It was a handwritten note — neat, swirly letters dancing across the page.
It read: “If you find this, you are wise and kind. Look near the pond where the lilies climb.”
Doc blinked. “A riddle!” she whispered excitedly. “This must be part of a learning quest!”
Without wasting a moment, she packed her lesson bag and flapped her wings toward the lily pond.
