📝 Quick summary of key information

Where does the river take the drops of water?

A river is a long path of water that winds through nature. It often starts with small drops of water that come together in streams. These drops can come from rain, melting snow, or underground springs.

Water drops sometimes travel hundreds of miles following rivers to the seas. They can cross mountains, valleys, and forests, carrying stories and secrets of nature with them.

A river's current carries not just water, but also important nutrients for aquatic life. These nutrients feed the plants and animals that live in and around the river.

Water flow is very important for ecosystems. It helps keep things balanced by spreading nutrients and adding oxygen to the water. This lets many living things thrive.

The River Journey

The Mysteries of the River

After listening to the joyful songs of the river, enchanting‎ (1) tales of building‎ (2) beavers, croaking‎ (3) frogs, and dancing flowers are told to Plim and Plam. They are then carried by the currents‎ (4), ready for new water‎ (5) adventures. Plim, the little sparkling droplet with sparkling blue eyes, and Plam, the round droplet with rainbow reflections, then wonder where the river will take them. They gently glide over the waves, while fish swim around them and leaves float on the surface.

Plim, curious, asks Plam:
« Plam, where are we going? »

Plam, with a mischievous smile, suggests:
« Let's follow the current. We will soon discover. »

After going through secret tunnels and shiny caves, Plim and Plam find water plants. They clean the water, making the home cleaner and healthier. Plim and Plam are amazed by the beauty of the scenery.

Plim, amazed, says:
« Plam, look at these plants. They make the water clean. »

Plam, amazed, says:
« Yes, they are magical. Let's continue our journey. »

After admiring the water plants and their role in cleaning the water, Plim and Plam continue their journey. They are then surprised by the meeting of a wise Heron Sylvestre who shows them a water map: the path to the ocean is near.

The Current and its Secrets

Plim and Plam look at the water map. They see winding rivers and blue lakes. They understand they must follow the current to reach the ocean.

Plim, amazed, reads aloud:
« Heron Sylvestre shows the map to Plam. You must follow the arrows. »

Plam, full of excitement, says:
« Yes, Plim. Let's follow the blue arrows. They show the way. »

They slide on the water, fast and light. They see colorful fish swimming near them. The fish jump out of the water to catch insects. The birds dive to catch fish. They discover that the river is full of life.

Plim, amazed, says:
« Plam, look at these fish. They jump high. »

Plam, amazed, adds:
« Yes, and birds too. They catch fish. »

After following Heron Sylvestre's water map, Plim and Plam are now ready to discover the Ocean of Reunion. They will soon meet other drops of water and see how they turn into steam under the hot sun to start their magical journey again. They have learned that the river is a fascinating world, full of life and mystery. They have discovered that every drop of water has an important role to play in the ecosystem‎ (6) and that they are part of a big natural cycle. They are eager to continue their adventure and find out what the ocean has in store for them. They know that, no matter where they go, they will always be together, ready to face challenges and discover new wonders.
