Hace mucho, mucho, mucho tiempo, Bella y su abuela Mamá Alma admiraban su huerto. Les gustaba trabajar juntos en el jardín. También cultivaban girasoles y lirios y charlaban con lagartos y colibríes. Caminaron alrededor de las flores y los vegetales tomados de la mano, algo que habían hecho con frecuencia desde que Bella era un bebé. A medida que su abuela envejecía, Bella la ayudó a caminar. “Cada año, necesito cada vez más tu ayuda”, dijo Mamá Alma.

 

Long, long, long ago, Bella and her grandmother Mamá Alma admired their vegetable garden. They liked gardening together. They grew sunflowers and lilies too, and chatted with lizards and hummingbirds. They walked around the flowers and vegetables holding hands, something they had done frequently since Bella was a baby. As her grandmother aged, Bella helped her to walk. “Every year, I need your help more and more,” said Mamá Alma.
