In a snug tunnel underground lived Mimi Mole. She slept on moss like a tiny pillow, and shiny pebbles sparkled on her little shelves.

Roots dangled like party streamers from her ceiling. The burrow felt safe and cozy, wrapping Mimi in comfort after busy digging days.

That night Mimi whispered, 'I wish I could see sunshine and flowers too.' The moss cradled her as she drifted into hopeful dreams.
