For Sunny Bee, being truly helpful means going anywhere and everywhere. When his beautiful sunflower friend Myah becomes very ill, Sunny travels to the “far side of the hills” seeking help.

branch to branch, finally clinging to one.
A voice spoke out of the darkness. “Well, well, well. A gift-wrapped dinner all for me?” “Oh no,
a spider!” Sunny fretted. “Wait! What if I tell you my story? Will you let me live?”
“I’m sure my heart will find your story very touching, but I have this thing inside me called a
stomach and it has no room for stories, only for food,” said the spider, creeping closer.
“But—I’ll fly away!”
“I have plenty of eyes to see that you are wounded. You can’t fly or defend yourself,” said the
spider, as he got ready to pounce…
