蚂蚁王国之旅。嗨,要到我们王国来转一转吗?一个细小的声音说道。我并没有在意,继续慢悠悠地散步。嗨!这声音再一次响起,我才反应过来,但不知道声音到底从那里发出来。我在这,看草地上!我向草地上望去,看见了一只小小的黑蚂蚁,他告诉我她叫露露。我弯下了腰,轻轻地呼吸着要不然就把它吹到九霄云外去了呦!要到我们王国来转一转吗?露露把自己的话重复了一遍。我兴奋地说:当然!于是我接受露露的魔法,吃下一块奶糖,许下自己的愿望,就马上变得和蚂蚁一样大小了。到了蚂蚁王国,眼前就是一片忙忙碌碌的景象。露露带着我去她的房间玩。她的房间真漂亮呀!一张蘑菇桌子上,有着甘甜的露珠水摆在上面。还有一张嫩绿的叶子床,真是美不胜收。她请我喝了一杯露珠水,甘甜爽口,可真好喝呀!玩了一会,我该走了,我恋恋不舍地对露露说。该是吃午饭的时间了,露露也有点舍不得:那好吧不过我想送你点礼物你出了房间门,一直往前走,再往右转,然后推开一扇大门,那儿有好多好东西,你看上那个就拿吧!我道了谢,按照露露的指示,推开了大门哇!好多首饰!我选了一个带有绿钻石的首饰,恋恋不舍地回家了。
