Bibi was a little bear with a big sense of wonder. She lived in a cozy cave at the bottom of a hill and loved looking up at the sky each morning to see what colors it would wear.
One sunny day, something magical floated across the meadow — a balloon! But not just any balloon. This one shimmered with all the colors of the rainbow.
“Hello?” Bibi called out. “Are you here to play?”
The balloon bobbed gently in the air, as if it were nodding.
Bibi giggled and reached out. When she grabbed the string, the rainbow balloon slowly lifted her into the sky — not too high, just enough to peek above the treetops.
“Wow,” whispered Bibi. “Everything looks so tiny! Even my house looks like a blueberry!”
The balloon glided softly above flowers, fields, and flapping butterflies. It floated like a feather, and the wind tickled Bibi’s nose while the sun warmed her fur.
As the sky turned pink and orange, the balloon spun gently, like it was saying goodnight. It floated back down and landed right outside Bibi’s cave.
“Thank you, balloon,” Bibi said with a sleepy smile. “That was the best ride ever.”
She snuggled into her blanket, let out one little yawn — and before the stars filled the sky, she was fast asleep.
