Ava's Bouncy Trouble

Ava, a playful bunny, is the protagonist of the story. She loves playing with her favorite ball and often neglects her school assignments, much to her mother’s concern. The conflict begins when Ava’s mother is called to the school to discuss Ava’s poor academic performance. After leaving the principal’s office, Ava encounters a friend whose mother praises their good grades and discipline. This leads Ava’s mother to compare the two, urging Ava to focus more on her studies. However, Ava disregards her mother’s advice and continues to prioritize playing over schoolwork. The climax occurs when Ava dreams about her favorite ball being destroyed after it rolls into the street and gets popped by a car. This emotional moment frightens Ava and serves as a wake-up call. The resolution comes when Ava balances her responsibilities and playtime, completes her schoolwork, and happily plays outside afterward, earning her mother’s pride and approval.
