Deep in the garden behind the old cottage, tiny fairies lived among the flowers. One special fairy named Bloom discovered that she had the power to make seeds sprout instantly.
One sunny morning, Max, in their slightly-too-big robe, wandered into the garden. Bloom, buzzing with excitement, saw Max. “Oh!” she squeaked, and sprinkled a poppy seed with her magic dust. *Pop!* A bright red poppy bloomed right in front of Max's nose.
Max gasped, eyes wide. “Wow!” they whispered, holding their wand a little tighter. "Did you do that?"
Bloom nodded, beaming. Max giggled. "That's amazing! Can you show me?" Bloom, delighted to have an audience, sprinkled another seed. This time, a sunflower shot up, taller than Max! Max laughed, a joyful sound that echoed through the flowerbeds. The garden, with its magic and its new friends, felt like the most wonderful place in the world.
