    Robby, the rabbit, jumped with joy when he saw the carrot garden. The sight of the orange carrots, peeking out of the green leaves, made him ecstatic. He had never seen such a large collection of carrots before.

    He hopped around the garden, his eyes wide with amazement. Every corner of the garden was filled with juicy, fresh carrots. Robby couldn't resist, so he took a bite, and the taste was heavenly.

    Suddenly, a squirrel appeared. He saw Robby enjoying the carrots and was curious. He approached Robby and asked about the garden. Robby, being friendly, shared the news of his discovery.

    The squirrel, excited, ran to inform other animals about the carrot garden. Robby was worried. He wanted to protect the garden from being depleted.

    Robby had an idea. He decided to guard the garden. He picked a spot at the edge of the meadow where he could see the entire garden.

    The news of the garden spread. Animals started visiting the garden but respected Robby's rule of taking only what they needed. The garden became a symbol of unity and sharing.
