00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:08,400
The hedgehog and the balloon. A
long time ago, in the heart of

2
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:16,199
the forest, an old truck ran
a bumpy road, suddenly with a big

3
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:23,559
bump. One of the cargo boxes
jumped and fell to the ground. Along

4
00:00:23,679 --> 00:00:30,800
those paths walked the nice hedgehog.
His spikes trembled with emotion. Seeing that

5
00:00:30,839 --> 00:00:37,600
mysterious object, without hesitation, he
decided to take it with him back home.

6
00:00:39,679 --> 00:00:49,439
Curiosity tickled him inside what wonders that
box could hide. Upon arriving at

7
00:00:49,439 --> 00:00:55,960
his home with a sigh of anticipation, the hedgehog opened the box and his

8
00:00:56,039 --> 00:01:02,880
heart gave a leap of joy as
he discovered its contents, a lot of

9
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,280
balloons of all colors of the rainbow. The emotion invaded him completely. It

10
00:01:08,519 --> 00:01:17,519
would be fantastic to inflate them all
with care and determination, the hedgehog set

11
00:01:17,599 --> 00:01:23,159
out to inflate the first balloon.
However, his spikes sharp as needles,

12
00:01:23,719 --> 00:01:30,079
were too much for the delicate surface
of the globe, which exploded with a

13
00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:37,400
fallen and a little frightened mood.
The hedgehog sought out his friend rabbit with

14
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:42,560
hope in his eyes, asked for
help, but even the rabbit, with

15
00:01:42,239 --> 00:01:49,120
his long teeth, only managed to
emit a weak whistle by trying and trying

16
00:01:49,439 --> 00:01:55,439
to inflate the balloon. Or again
and again determined not to surrender, the

17
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:01,200
hedgehog and rabbit thought of looking for
the agile, confident that their agility and

18
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:09,439
smaller teeth would be the key to
inflating the balloons. However, the squirrel,

19
00:02:09,879 --> 00:02:16,400
while blowing with all its might,
could not swell the balloon. It

20
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:23,120
was not strong enough, so the
colored balloons remained as deflated as at first

21
00:02:23,199 --> 00:02:32,360
discouraged, but not defeated. The
hedgehog, rabbit, and clay were in

22
00:02:32,439 --> 00:02:39,599
search of their friend bear, whose
strength and imposing figure made them believe that

23
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:47,680
he could solve the problem eagerly.
They asked him for help, but the

24
00:02:49,199 --> 00:02:54,800
bear, with such force, burst
out of a single blow each balloon,

25
00:02:54,960 --> 00:03:02,159
so he could not inflate any balloon
that exploded in his robust claws. Then

26
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:08,759
they decided to turn to the wise
owl, whose experience and knowledge could be

27
00:03:08,759 --> 00:03:15,000
the solution. With humility they asked
him for help and the owl, after

28
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:21,599
having thought about it for a while
with his sharp and soft gaze, tried,

29
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:29,960
but he could not inflate the balloon
because he escaped among his downly discouraged

30
00:03:30,039 --> 00:03:34,639
and disillusioned wings. The hedgehog,
rabbit or squirrel, bear and owl sat

31
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:42,039
next to a serene lake, immersed
in their thoughts, but suddenly, as

32
00:03:42,039 --> 00:03:46,000
a gift from the forest itself,
a curious frog emerged from the water with

33
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:54,360
a playful jump and asked for a
balloon. They didn' t think it

34
00:03:54,439 --> 00:04:01,000
was a very good idea at first, but they thought about it better and

35
00:04:01,039 --> 00:04:03,840
gave it one of the balloons to
everyone' s amazement. The frog managed

36
00:04:03,919 --> 00:04:11,759
to inflate a balloon for each of
its new friends by filling them with joy

37
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:17,759
and thus together they enjoyed the magic
of those balloons united by friendship and kindness

38
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:26,560
of the heart. If you like
