The Pelican's Picnic Basket

Percy the pelican lives beside a bright blue sea and decides to arrange a picnic for his friends. He lines his woven straw basket with red-checked cloth and starts packing bread, cheese, and apples, yet he soon realizes he does not know which treats his friends would enjoy. Gus the seagull, a young gull wearing a red cap and carrying a sea-green satchel, offers to help, and together they write a list of favorite foods. Invitations go out on pieces of driftwood, and the friends happily agree to come and bring something to share.

On the day itself, Percy discovers he has forgotten to gather the fish and berries he had collected earlier. His friends reassure him that sharing what they have is enough, and the group spreads a blanket on the sand to enjoy a feast together. Written by Ebru Mina TOMURCUK, this gentle story about friendship, cooperation, and sharing can be read on Onlinemasal Com.Tr. It suits young readers ages 3 to 7 and anyone who enjoys tales of animal friends and the spirit of sharing.
