Read the passage and answer the questions given below.

The magic garden was in a school playground. It was very pretty. Sunflowers and roses stood high against the wall. There were also marigolds, poppies and pansies.

The sunshine fell on this garden more than on any other and the flowers danced and sang happily. They said to one another, “We have hundreds of little gardeners.” They were the children from the school.

One sunny morning the flowers were talking to the birds. “I love all the children, but I love the dear little ones most of all,” said a poppy. “I like them to bring their watering cans and water my thirsty roots.”
