Zigzag Zander peeked into the hidden gate. He saw vines with bright leaves and sparkles in the air. “Wow,” he said. “This garden is full of magic!”

Glimmer Puff floated beside a shiny tomato plant. She grinned and said, “Look at these juicy tomatoes! They smell so fresh.”

Zigzag Zander found a funny puzzle made of melon slices. He tried to fit them together like a jigsaw. “I love puzzles!” he squealed.

Glimmer Puff gently tapped a carrot. “Hello, Carrot,” she said. The carrot answered, “I make eyes bright and strong. Chomp away!”

A giant yellow pepper glowed in the sunlight. Its skin looked smooth, and its sweet scent drifted through the air.

Zigzag Zander asked the broccoli, “Why are you so green?” The broccoli chuckled, “I give you energy to play all day.”

Glimmer Puff giggled at the bright strawberries. “You keep my heart happy, Berry!” she said. “I like sweet treats that help me feel good!”

A large watering can rested by the lettuce patch. The can was shiny and green, ready to sprinkle drops of water in the soil.
