Suzel aux sports d'hiver
Suzel la souricette a mis son bonnet tricoté, elle a bien chaussé ses skis; elle se sent pleine de courage.
Patatras ! Chaque fois, c'est la même chose : elle s'élance et hop ! elle tombe tout de suite. La neige entre sous son parka et la mouille. Ses bâtons dégringolent aux loin. Est-ce qu'un jour, elle réussira à être une bonne skieuse ?
Il faut du courage pour continuer, se dit-elle. Finalement, le meilleur moment du ski, c'est l'heure du goûter !
