A little preview

The meadow smelled of wet grass when Alex heard a soft snuffling near the path. A small red fox sat with a paper rolled like a tiny trumpet. It was a flower map—dots and loops showing secret blooms. The fox, named Lark, worried because one dot had faded away. Lark needed that last blossom to finish a circle for the Meadow Night. Alex offered to help, and together they studied the map under a warm, curious sky.
