© Bondarovich Alena Anatolyevna In one Web Kingdom, Hedgehog was born in the air. He looked like some kind of insect, but he was completely invisible and settled in the air. He was unexpected - an unexpected guest in the Kingdom and no one's at all. He had no legs, arms or wings, but he easily flew through the air. He flew like that, flying around the whole world and decided to stop in the Forest Kingdom. There was no one like Hedgehog in the world before, so when some Animals saw him, they were very surprised at how Hedgehog looked and how he behaved. He was very tiny and almost unnoticeable, somewhat similar to Kolobok from fairy tales, but only very small in size and with sharp shiny spines that flashed and pricked if someone accidentally touched them. Nobody wanted to meet Hedgehog, so everyone who heard about him tried to protect themselves from him by any means or hide in their burrow houses so that Hedgehog wouldn’t find them. The smart Animals tried many methods of protection and escape, so as not to get acquainted with the Hedgehog, but not all of them helped and some of the animals still encountered the Hedgehog, and then licked the wounds from the prickly thorns. Everyone was very worried that the Hedgehog appeared in the Kingdom, and Hedgehog was worried that he was doing only harm, not good. And then the Animals decided to hide from him in their houses, and when going outside from their holes, so that the Hedgehog would not find them, they had to put a special mask on their nose and even hide their paws. And if someone did go out for a walk to get some air, or to collect mushrooms and berries, then after that it was necessary to wash their paws very well and diligently with soap or lubricate them with a magic elixir, and only then the fingerprints of the Animals were immediately washed away from those places where which they touched and then Ezhun could not find traces to their houses. Time passed and there were more Ezhuns. The animals all gathered together in the clearing and decided that in order not to be found by the Hedgehogs, it was better for them not to meet each other for a while, but to be friends and communicate by knocking, whistling, chirping, and even just being silent. And all the Animals of the Forest Kingdom agreed to such rules. The Animals were bored and sad at home, but they understood that this was temporary and that very soon sunny and bright days would begin in their Forest Kingdom! And then on one cloudy day, heavy rain began, it was so powerful that it could wash away all the Hedgehogs at once. planets. After this rain, the brightest rainbow appeared in the sky and the next day all the Animals began to quietly emerge from their burrow-houses and rejoice in the sun, which warmed them with warmth.!!!
