Milly’sWorldWorld
The cicadas‘ The cicadas‘ treasuretreasure
They‘re always having parties in Milly‘s World; they never miss a chance to get together and have fun, play, laugh and eat together.
The cicadas‘ treasure
Why don‘t we ask Alice to sing
with us?
They love to listen to music and maybe even dance. The Woodland Orchestra has fl utes and violins, trombones and double basses...a singer is all they need.
The cicadas‘ treasure
Great idea! She‘s a cicada…
Listen...
Let‘s go!
Hello, have you seen Alice?
I asked her to move, and
now she‘s on the poplar tree by the
stream.
Milly and Billy can hear Alice singing. Not everyone in the wood is happy to hear her. Nana Spider, for example, prefers silence.
The cicadas‘ treasure
I‘ve heard her more than I‘ve seen her!
She‘s so noisy — I can barely hear myself think!
There‘s Alice.
Would you like to come and sing in
our orchestra?
Brilliant!
I‘d love to, I could sing the
Lost Treasure song!
The cicadas‘ treasure
How does it go?
Scrrr, scrr, scr...
Of course not! You don‘t understand
„cicada“…
The cicadas‘ treasure
What a beautiful voice...
I didn‘t understand any
of it!
So much snow...
I don‘t know, let‘s go and see!
Alice tells the story of the lost treasure.„One winter evening, two cicadas were out walking in the cold air when they saw a light far off in the distance.“
The cicadas‘ treasure
Everything‘s white! How lovely...
what is it?
Brrr…it‘s so cold!
„The two cicadas fl ew on until they reached a place where the moon was turning into lots of shining rays.“
It‘s a treasure!
The cicadas‘ treasure
Yes, a treasure of gold and silver threads!
Look...it‘s down there!
„It was really, really cold. The cicadas‘ hands were frozen and their eyes were full of ice.“
I can‘t see a thing…
Let‘s take some threads of
treasure...
I can‘t, my hands are frozen…
Hold them tightly!
The cicadas‘ treasure
Yes, we can take them to the other
cicadas!
Let‘s go home, we‘re freezing here!
Alice‘s story is good,but it doesn‘t end well.
What happened next?
Let‘s go home, we‘ll come back for
it tomorrow.
We searched for the treasure for days and
days, but we couldn‘t fi nd it anywhere.
The cicadas‘ treasure
Oh no…the treasure has
slipped through my fi ngers!
Not yet, now we need to go and play in
the orchestra! Are you coming with
us, Alice?
A tall, bent tree...?Let‘s go and look for it!
We lost it near a tall tree that was bent over with snow,
but there aren‘t any trees like that near here...
The cicadas‘ treasure
With pleasure! Can I bring
some biscuits?
Mmm, delicious!
MMM!
The cicadas‘ treasure
There‘s no need, we‘ve got a Twinny,
would you like some?
With Alice the orchestra is now complete and Maestro Cricket is very pleased.
The cicadas‘ treasure
It‘s autumn, the air is fresh and the leaves are falling from the trees. In Milly‘s World, the animals are getting ready for the new season.
The cicadas‘ treasure
So…have you found your treasure?
We‘ll go and look for the tree!
Unfortunately not, we lost it near a bent tree and…
Really?
Of course, and we‘ll fi nd your silver and gold threads too.
Milly and Billy are helping Alice the cicada to put away her summer things.
The cicadas‘ treasure
They search high and low, but there aren‘t any bent trees in the wood, only a fallen tree trunk covered in moss. A family of earthworms lives under the trunk.
Can you tell me when this
tree fell?Look down there!
A fallen tree trunk…
Yes, this could be…
Who knows… maybe during a very snowy
winter.
… the treasure tree!
The cicadas‘ treasure
Yes, this must be the tree where the cicadas lost their treasure.
Let‘s dig, the silver threads must be under here!
The cicadas‘ treasure
Hey, stop that! This is our house!
The cicadas‘ treasure The cicadas‘ treasure
Have you seen it, by any chance?
Sorry, but we‘re looking for the
cicadas‘ treasure.
Let‘s go and ask them!
No, but the gnats who lived here before
us might know something about it.
Here they are! However many
are there?
Excuse me, do you know
anything about the treasure that the cicadas lost?
A lot...

The cicadas‘ treasure
There‘s the ants‘ nest!
The ants are all at work. Milly and Billy go to see the person in charge.
We‘re looking for a treasure
of gold and silver threads!
Let‘s see what we‘ve got in the
storeroom.Hmm…
gold and silver threads!
So much stuff…Careful, Billy, don‘t touch!
The cicadas‘ treasure
Billy is curious - too curious...
What are you talking about? Wheat is only
bad for coeliacs if they eat it!
Stop, don‘t touch those wheat grains, they‘re
bad for you!Uh-oh!
Oh no…our wheat!
The cicadas‘ treasure
Take it away, we tried to eat it, but it‘s no good.
The cicadas‘ treasure!!!
Fantastic!
Here‘s what you‘re looking for.
The cicadas‘ treasure
The treasure threads have been found, but what can they be used for?
Look what we‘ve brought you, Alice!
The treasure, our treasure…
thank you!
One more thread, there... we‘ve nearly
fi nished. Yes, then over the top and underneath again.
Shall I thread it through here?
The cicadas‘ treasure
It‘s so nice to rock in such a precious hammock!
These Quadritos are good!
Delicious!
The cicadas‘ treasure
It‘s winter. In the cold air music can be heard echoing through the trees and over the frozen lake. Where is it coming from?
The cicadas‘ treasure
It‘s coming from the den where the Woodland Orchestra has met up to play. There are a lot of musicians, but someone is missing.
No, let‘s go and look for her.
Have you seen Alice?
The cicadas‘ treasure
Alice is a wonderful singer and without her the orchestra is incomplete.
Why are you crying?
Thank you.
But how…?
The cicadas‘ treasure
She‘s down there!
My beautiful hammock of silver threads, it‘s gone,
disappeared!!!
We have to go back to the orchestra now, but afterwards
we‘ll go and look for it…
During orchestra rehearsals, Milly and Billy try to help their friend.
Have you seen a hammock woven with
gold and silver threads?
No, I haven‘t.
Maybe the wind carried
it away.
Well…
Maybe someone‘s stolen it…
The cicadas‘ treasure
The fl ute player has a very beautiful scarf, tied with something sparkling.
Where did you get that silver thread?
It‘s pretty, isn‘t it? It was caught in
a bush.
But it belongs to Alice...
Thank you!I didn‘t know.
You can give it back to her if you like.
The cicadas‘ treasure
After rehearsals, the search goes on. There are gold and silver threads everywhere.
There‘s one!
Look at Mama Bluebottle...
Rock-a-bye, baby…
There‘s another one down
there!
The cicadas‘ treasure
That‘s a lovely blanket... can we swap?
Sure, thank you!
Now you‘re really nice and
warm, aren‘t you?
This thread is too fi ne
for my net…
The cicadas‘ treasure
Shall we swap? I‘ll give you my ribbon
and you……and I‘ll give you my silver
thread.
that you could give me... Thank you, would you like
this thread?
Nana Spider, I‘ve got a Pausa Ciok that...
The cicadas‘ treasure
OK, let‘s go!
Hey...there‘s another thread
on the tree, and another one further on…
Here‘s your treasure!
Great!But now we must go
back to the orchestra, I have to sing...
The cicadas‘ treasure
The Woodland Orchestra is nearly ready to play.
Here we are!
We‘re here! Just a second, I have an idea.
Come on, Billy!
The cicadas‘ treasure
A silver thread here, a silver thread there… Now the cicadas‘ treasure belongs to everyone and the party can start.
Here... like this!
Perfect!
Once upon a time there was a precious
treasure made of gold and silver threads...
The cicadas‘ treasure
It‘s great in Milly‘s World, they play and sing, eat and have fun together.
