     Puffy had a friend - Leon.

Puffy had a friend - Leon.

But everybody in the kindergarten called him Leon the Lion.

Do you know why?

Maybe because he liked chocolate?

NOOO. Lions do not like chocolate!

Then, maybe because he was nice?

Yes! Lions can be nice, but this is wrong reason. Try more!

Maybe because his mother loves him?

Yes! Lion's mother loves him, but this is wrong reason. Think! Whom we call Lion?

Yes. Brave children!

Leon was so brave that everybody thought that he is the bravest child in the world.

Leon was not afraid of cats who showed their nails when he kicked them with his leg.

And he was not afraid of dogs, who barked when he threw on them stones.

He was not scared by that frog who tried to jump when children threw a stick on it.

Leon was not afraid when Puffy's mother said that she would tell his parents that he made Puffy hurt.

But from then off, Leon stopped hurting Puffy.

Leon did not make scare face when Puppet Theater came to them and showed scary things.

And he was not afraid to enter alone to dark cabin room in the kindergarten.

But one day he began to shout: Beatle! Beatle!

And jumped on the chair.

Children looked at Leon.

He was jumping on the chair, showing his finger on the beetle and his face was scared.

-What happened? Asked Puffy.

-The beetle!. Don't you see?

-Are you afraid of this beetle?

-No, but I do not want that it will touch me.

All the children began to laugh on Leon.

Yellow Leon! Leon the chicken!

And Leon began to cry.

Puffy laughed too at the beginning, but then she took the beetle on her finger and brought it to the yard.

There she put it on the tree and saw how the beetle flies away.

Puffy waved hand to the beetle and returned to the room.

Leon got down from the chair and went alone near the wall.

Children continued to call him names.

Puffy said : "don't laugh about Leon. He learned his lesson. He will be our friend. Do you want Leon?"

And he nodded his head for agreement.

Children stopped to laugh about Leon.

"Come with us to play outside, Leon the Friend" said Jimmy the Hero.

And all the children ran out to play together.
