have you Have you ever heard the story of Mia the Forest Guardian? You haven't? Oh, all right, listen close. Mia the Forest Guardian was in a very special forest creature whose job was to guard the forest and all of its creatures.

She had very special magical powers, one of which she could fly.

She was an amazing creature and would protect the forest from all kinds of dangerous things that might happen.

And so one of her jobs was to help creatures that might have gotten stuck,

or if a tree was feeling sick, she would heal it with her special powers.

Mia was looked upon as very famous and like a celebrity in the forest.

All the creatures loved Mia, the Forest Guardian.

She had made friends with almost everyone in the forest,

It was a very strange creature and she doesn't even know where it came from because nothing else looked quite like the beast.
