Once there was a little bird she was very pretty.
All the other birds were jealous of her so one night they got a tarantula to pluck every feather from her. When she woke up she cried as she saw the tarantula walking away into the sunset. Very far away a daddy long legs spider heard her cries and came to help.
"What's wrong" he said.
"Don't you see? All my feathers are gone" she said.
"Maybe I can help?" he said.
She gave him a doubtful look.
So he gathered all his friends and started making silk feathers. A few months later they started falling out.
"Do you want me to make some more?"
"No they have started growing back."
