**The Mystery of the Missing Monarchs**

In a small town, butterflies were everywhere. The town had a beautiful butterfly sanctuary. People loved to watch the colorful monarch butterflies. One day, young naturalist Ben and his little sister, Lily, went to the sanctuary. They were excited but noticed something strange.

“Where are the butterflies?” asked Lily, looking around.

“I don’t know,” replied Ben. “Let’s find out!”

The two siblings began their search. They talked to Mr. Green, the sanctuary manager. “The butterflies disappeared last night,” he said, worried. “It might be a problem with the flowers.”

Ben and Lily ran to the flower garden. They saw some plants were dry. “The flowers need water!” said Ben. “Let’s fix this.”

They worked hard to water the flowers. Soon, they heard a soft fluttering sound. The monarch butterflies returned!

“Look, Lily! They’re back!” Ben cheered.

“Yay! We did it!” Lily laughed.

The siblings learned that nature needs care. Together, they saved the butterflies and helped their town.
