Milo Meets a Friend Puppy Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Milo the puppy loved to chase things. He chased balls, he chased leaves, and he chased his own tail. One sunny afternoon, a beautiful blue butterfly fluttered into the garden.

"I will chase you!" thought Milo. He pounced! But the butterfly danced up into the air. Milo bounced! But the butterfly twirled just out of reach.

Milo got tired. He lay down in the soft grass with a puppy sigh. The little blue butterfly saw that Milo wasn't chasing anymore. It fluttered down, down, down, and landed for just a moment on the tip of Milo’s black nose. It tickled! Milo didn't move a muscle. He just watched his new friend until it flew away. Sometimes, he learned, the best things come to you when you are very still.
