Bunny tucked their big ears behind a leaf. Mike the elephant rumbled, 'Your ears look great!' Bunny sighed, 'They feel too big.' Mike flapped his own. 'Big helps,' he smiled, shading Bunny.

Mike whispered, 'Let’s use them.' Bunny wiggled. 'I hear water!' Together they followed the sound to a cool stream. 'Your ears guided us,' said Mike. Bunny grinned, dipping toes and ears.

At the stream, Mike frowned. 'Sometimes my ears feel too huge.' Bunny lifted theirs. 'They match your huge heart.' Mike flapped, sending sparkly droplets flying. They laughed, dancing to the splashy beat.

'Big is beautiful because it’s ours,' Bunny said. Mike nodded. 'And useful!' Together they shaded flowers, cooled the stream, and hugged themselves. 'I love my ears,' Bunny cheered. 'Me too,' said Mike.
