The Little Rose Plants

A little Rose plant lived inside a dark damp room. One day
she heard a soft tapping on her door.
”Who’s there?” she asked.
“I am little Raindrop. Please let me in,” cried the visitor.
“No way!” said the Rose Plant angrily.
Little Raindrop was very sad for being turned away. After
sometime the Rose Plant heard a soft rustle near the door.
“Who’s there now?” she asked.
“I am Sunny Sunshine,” said the new visitor.
“I don’t have time for sunshine,” said the Rose Plant
haughtily.
A few days later, the leaves of the Rose Plant turned brown
in color, and her young stem began drooping.
Then one day, she heard the chirping of birds, and opened
her door to see outside. It was spring and there were colorful
flowers and greenery all around. The Rose Plant realized her
mistake. So when Rain and Sunshine returned, she welcomed
them warmly.

After a few days she had a pretty pink rose, for which she thanked
the Raindrop and the Sunshine.

Answer the following questions:

1. Where did the Little Rose plant live?
