The Duck's Floating Garden

On a bright spring morning, Daisy the duck waddles to the pond in her blue sun hat, carrying a satchel of seeds. She dreams of a garden that can grow right on the water and sets about creating a floating flowerbed using buttercups, daisies, and forget-me-nots on a flat piece of wood. Her pride in the floating garden is short-lived when a gentle breeze pushes it out of reach, teaching her that a lovely idea alone is not enough to keep it safe.

Benny the beaver, in his red plaid shirt and tool belt, notices her trouble and offers help. He explains that a floating garden needs strong ropes and heavy anchors, and together they draw a plan on bark. All afternoon they work side by side, with Benny finding vines and stones and Daisy filling clay pots with soil and flowers. This gentle tale, written by Çınar BİBER and readable on Masalcı Baba, shows young readers that creative projects need careful planning and that asking a friend for help can turn a mistake into something better.
