Harry the hedgehog was sniffing around the garden when something round and shiny rolled toward him.
It was a bright red ball, soft and bouncy, almost as big as he was!
Harry poked it with his nose, and it wobbled, making him giggle with a tiny squeak.
He gave it a push with his paw and chased after it, his little feet pattering through the grass.
The ball bounced off a rock, flew up, and landed gently beside a daisy patch.
Harry rolled onto his back and kicked the ball with his tiny feet, laughing all the way.
Soon, a squirrel joined the fun, and they took turns bouncing and chasing.
Harry smiled wide—who knew one little ball could bring such a big adventure?
