You found: The rocket's shiny nose cone
Pistachio's story
Pistachio the squirrel was counting acorns for winter: one, two, three, all the way to ten! Then she spotted something shiny under the leaves.
It was the nose cone of Piko's rocket! "You counted so well," said Pistachio, "that you found the very first part of our ship."
