Little Tomato Girl was small but oh so brave! One sunny day, she said, "I must find my siblings! They were taken to a big restaurant!" Off she went, her tiny heart full of hope. On her way, she met Wise Crow, who squawked, "You can choose, little one! Find your siblings and see them cooked, or live free and never see them again!" Little Tomato thought hard, but her love made her choose to find them. "I want to find them!" she exclaimed.
The Wise Crow flapped his wings and said, "I will help you!" He carried her to Mr. Rooten Branch, who was old and wise. "I will help you find your family," he said, with a soft smile. With a great leap, Mr. Branch jumped into the river! He helped Little Tomato float to the city. Before he went under, Little Tomato asked, "How can I repay you?" He gave her a seed. "Plant it where many can see it, so I can give shade for others!" Later, Little Tomato met some rats who wanted her seed. Brave as ever, she said, "No! This is my gift!" Just then, a kind dog appeared and said, "I can smell where your family is! Let's go!" Together, they walked to the restaurant and found her siblings. They were so happy, and she accepted her fate to be a good meal.
Little Tomato, little tomato, so brave and sweet. She found her family, all back on their feet! With a seed in her hand and a heart full of cheer, she knew her choice was the best one, dear.
