The peas thought the whole world consisted of the pod which contained them. They were very surprised when their shell opened and they discovered so many new things.
'Now what will happen to us?' they asked each other worriedly.
It was their fate to become ammunition for a little boy's peashooter. They were fired a great distance, one after the other, and they never saw each other again.
One of the peas landed in a crack in a window frame, where it became covered by moss. Beyond the window, in the room, there was a very sick little girl, who, it seemed, did not have the strength to either live or die. Her family thought it was a miracle that she had actually survived the winter..... and, in the meantime, spring had arrived.
One lovely day, looking up from her bed, the little girl noticed a tiny plant growing on the windowsill. She gave an exclamation pf pleasure and surprise. Her mother moved her bed right beneath the window, so that the sick child could see the plant more easily, A few days later, the sunshine caused the little pea to flower, and the little girl found she had enough strength to get out of bed and stroke the petals: she had begun to recover!
