“Daisy the Daring Duck”

Once upon a time, in a bright and bubbly pond, lived a duck named Daisy. Daisy was not just any duck; she was daring! One day, she decided to go on an adventure to find delicious donuts. Along the way, she met many delightful friends like Doug the dog and Daisy the dragonfly. They danced, dove, and had a dazzling time!

Can you guess what letter Daisy’s name starts with? That’s right! It’s the letter D!
