📝 Quick summary of key information

Can we hear nature when it rains?

When it rains, we hear soothing sounds. Water drops fall on the leaves, making a unique natural music. Each leaf becomes a tiny cymbal that softly rings.

Plants love the rain. They use the rainwater to grow and become stronger. It's like they are drinking a big glass of cool water!

Plants take in rainwater through a process called absorption. The roots of plants, like tiny straws, drink the water and spread it all through the plant.

The sounds of rain are often soft and soothing. They can help us feel calm and peaceful, like a natural lullaby. We can also hear the raindrops falling on other surfaces.

Leaf Melody

Can you hear nature when it rains?

The Discovery of Leaf Melody

After jumping with dragonflies in the air, spinning and laughing, Plim and Plam, two playful water droplets, discovered the joy of falling‎ (1) to Earth. They learned that drops fall from the sky during the rain dance. But this time, they landed on a big green leaf that sounds like a soft drum. Plim and Plam are curious‎ (2) to find out what will happen next.

Plim, amazed, exclaims:
« How funny! The leaf makes a sound. »

Plam, full of excitement, says:
« Yes! And I go pling! »

Soon after, Plam arrives and goes pling ! The two sisters, surprised and amused, start to explore this new discovery. They feel that water gives life to all the nature around them.

Plim, amazed, says:
« Do you hear that? It's like a song. »

Plam, amazed, says: « It's Leaf Melody‎ (3) playing music. »

The two drops create a song with the leaf. They feel that water gives life to all the nature around. They decide to stay for a while to listen to the melodious‎ (4) sounds that the leaf makes with each drop that touches it. They hear soft and soothing noises, like a gentle melody. Plim, curious, wants to know more. She decides to ask Leaf Melody, a little forest fairy known for her melodious voice that can soothe‎ (5) animals and make plants bloom.

The Magic of Leaf Melody

Plim and Plam get closer to the green leaf. They listen carefully to the melodious sounds. They are amazed by the magic of nature.

Plim, curious, asks:
« Leaf Melody, do you know these sounds? »

Leaf Melody, with a gentle smile, explains:
« Yes, it is the leaves that make music. »

Plam, curious, asks:
« Why do leaves make nice sounds? »

Leaf Melody, with a gentle smile, explains:
« When they fall on the leaves, they make different sounds. Each drop of water, depending on its size and speed, makes a unique sound. That's why the leaves play music. »

Plim, amazed, says:
« It's magical! »

Leaf Melody, with a gentle smile, says:
« Yes, and it helps plants grow. Water is very important. »

After playing with the green leaf and singing with it, Plim and Plam gently slide towards a lively river. This river takes them on a new adventure where they will discover majestic‎ (6) mountains and funny fish like rainbow trout. They will listen to fascinating‎ (7) stories that the river will tell them, while finding out where the water goes after the rain. They can't wait to see what this new adventure has in store for them.
