Once upon a time, a very curious girl named [Olivia](D5973BD2) and her very brave little brother [Noah](WPNRQYN5) ventured into their grandmother's garden. It wasn’t just any garden—at the far end near the house, it looked like a jungle! [Olivia](D5973BD2) couldn’t resist exploring the mysterious greenery while [Noah](WPNRQYN5) followed closely, holding onto her hand.

At the back of the garden stood a scraggly hedge that seemed to block the way. [Olivia](D5973BD2), eager to explore further, found a gap just big enough for them to crawl through. As the hedge closed up magically behind them, [Noah](WPNRQYN5) tugged at her hand. 'Uh oh, I think we should go back, [Olivia](D5973BD2)!' he said nervously. [Olivia](D5973BD2) shook her head. 'Not yet, [Noah](WPNRQYN5), we've just started!'

Beyond the hedge, the garden started looking wilder and stranger. Soon the siblings stumbled upon an old wooden bridge that stood all alone, no stream or river underneath it—just more tangled weeds. 'Why is there a bridge with no water?' [Noah](WPNRQYN5) asked curiously. But before [Olivia](D5973BD2) could answer, a grumbling voice called from underneath, 'Oy! Who dares cross my bridge?'

Startled, [Olivia](D5973BD2) and [Noah](WPNRQYN5) both froze in the middle of the bridge. Suddenly, a small gnome popped out from underneath! He was only up to [Olivia](D5973BD2)’s knees, with a wrinkly face and a pointy red hat. He stroked his long white beard and squinted at them. He was so funny-looking that [Olivia](D5973BD2) let out a nervous giggle, and soon even [Noah](WPNRQYN5) couldn’t help but laugh!
