\nLively Lemmings Excerpt:
\nIt was a gorgeous afternoon in the Ahway Island forest. The sun shined brightly through the tree branches. The air was warm, but a cool, refreshing breeze swept through, bringing with it the fresh scent of lilacs.\xa0 In spite of the beautiful day, Lexie Lemming found herself feeling a bit bored as she leaned against a rock.
\n
\nLexie stretched out her tiny paws and sighed. \u201cWhat should we do today?\u201d she wondered aloud.
