Waking up to find a great amount of white ground sparkles all over the place, Ducky yawned, stretched, and rubbed her eyes before realizing what day was beginning to occur.
"It is The Day of Great Giving, it is, it is!" Ducky exclaimed to herself excitedly, with a big smile on her face. Not even looking back to see where her mama was (by then, however, she was already awake and with the rest of the adults), she quickly started running towards the Great Valley's meeting place, where the celebration was planned to start before long. Suddenly, she stopped running when she heard some sleep rumbles. Oh yes...Spike was still asleep...

As Petrie opened his eyes for the first time in at least 8 hours, he yawned and stretched. Looking outside his nest to see all of the adults from a far distance away, his eyes shot up wide. A smile fast-approached on his face as he realized...
"Me no can believe it!" Petrie exclaimed happily, "The Day of Great Giving finally here! Woo-hoo!" Giggling with joy, he flew out and headed towards the direction of the meeting place.
He was not mistaken; his all-time favorite celebration was finally about to occur! Sure, the Bright Circle Celebration was something special to him, but the Day of Great Giving was a celebration that Petrie had anticipated for an entire cold time. He loved the food, he loved the gifts that the Father of the Sky (as well as his own family) would give him, but he especially could not forget the true meaning of the season: unconditional love and friendship between family and friends.
