Benny the Bunny could make a perfectly round sand pie 🎵, and he knew how to dig a moat for his sandcastle 🎵 all by himself. But he wasn’t very good at sharing. And today, Benny felt like the king of the playground 🎵.
He had brought his greatest treasure: a brand-new, shiny yellow digger 🎵 with a big, movable 🎵 scoop. With his best friend, Buster the Puppy, he decided to build a giant new sandcastle with a deep moat—bigger than any they had ever built before.
Benny worked very hard, sticking out the tip of his tongue as he focused. He scooped sand into the yellow bucket and **dumped it onto the growing mountain** 🎵 🎵. Buster patted down the **walls with his paws** 🎵 🎵. The castle grew and grew, and the moat around it **got deeper and deeper** 🎵 🎵. All they needed now was a bridge.
“Wow, what an awesome moat!” **barked Buster happily** 🎵 🎵. “Benny, can I borrow your digger for a minute? I just want to smooth out the bridge.”
Buster reached out his paw toward the beautiful toy. Benny felt a big, hot balloon growing inside his tummy 🎵. Give away his digger?! But it was HIS digger! Benny’s ears stood straight up 🎵, and his little nose turned red. He curled his free paw into a tight fist and started stomping his hind foot in the sand 🎵. STOMP! STOMP! STOMP!
“No! Mine!” he shouted as loudly as he could.
