It was a crisp October day, I woke up to the other dogs whining as the shelter workers let us all out of our kennels. Yes! Freedom! I ran so fast to the playroom to play with my friends! Today was going to be a big day - I can feel it! I played for hours and hours, until I had to have a nap. After lunch I saw two humans walk in and sit on the floor. Everyone crowded around them, jumping on them. Get yourself together guys I thought. I quietly walked over and sat by the mans huge feet. I knew the drill, people visited us all the time and had a few cuddles. As I sat watching the commotion of Simba getting silly all over this ladies lap. I met eyes with the lady human, she immediately picked me up. My legs were dangling and I thought jeez lady I just had breakfast. I stared into her and she stared back, she said "its you, your the one." I said to myself ok lady, do you have food or a ball? The lady stood up and talked with a shelter worker, she came back and said "I'm going to be your new Mom" and I thought "Mom?." She said she would be back, she came back with a new collar and name tag with the name "Koda."

Beppe clapped his little hands as the bright yellow bus rolled into view. His sister Nina held his tiny hand, guiding him aboard. The bus had big, shiny wheels, and they made a fun sound as they went round and round. “The wheels on the bus go round and round!” Nina sang, and Beppe giggled, swaying to the music. Beppe looked out the window and saw the trees. “Swish, swish, swish!” Nina said, pointing at the branches moving in the wind. Beppe laughed and tapped the window with his fingers. Inside the bus, Nina found a button. “Beep, beep, beep!” she said, pretending to press it. Beppe joined in, making cheerful little noises. As the bus stopped, Beppe spotted its big, round wheels again. They still went round and round in his mind. The adventure had been full of music, motion, and fun. Back at home, Beppe sat with Nina, babbling happily. He couldn’t wait to ride the bus again and sing with his sister.

Nylon is having issues embracing his natural curly locks. Nylon has tried everything to cover his natural curly hair from wearing baseball caps, pulling hoodies over his head with the drawstring tightly. Nylon thought to himself one night maybe if I spray my head with water and hold my hands on top of my head for 10 minutes my hair would flatten, while this did make Nylon's hair less poofy, by the time morning arrived Nylon hair was curlier and puffer than ever. Nylon figured the only other option he had was to ask his father if he could get his haircut. So, one Saturday morning Nylon's father took him to the local barbershop to get a haircut. Although this is what Nylon thought was going to be life changing, he still didn't feel any different, eventhough his hair was now gone. When Nylon returned to school on Monday all the kids were looking and pointing not quite the response Nylon was looking for, one of his classmates Syer asked him "Heyyyy, why did you cut your hair? "I thought your hair was really cool looking, I wish my hair would curl like that." Nylon gave a slight smile but on the inside he felt confused, but realized that none ever told him that they did not like his locks, no one ever made fun of him that he had extra curly hair, but instead it was his insecurities about his locks that made him feel that everyone else felt the exact same way that he did. From that day on Nylon realized sometimes being different is what makes us all be unique. Nylon went back home and told his dad that he thinks he will let his hair grow back.

In a quiet little village, six-year-old Siraj loved exploring and learning. One sunny morning, his grandmother gave him a small pouch. "Inside are three magic seeds," she said. "They’ll grow if you plant them with kindness, honesty, and patience." The Seed of Kindness Siraj planted the first seed and decided to call it the Seed of Kindness. That day, he saw his friend Zara struggling to carry a basket of apples. "Let me help!" he said. Together, they carried the basket home. That evening, the seed had sprouted, glowing softly. The Seed of Honesty The next day, Siraj planted the second seed. While playing, he accidentally broke Ali’s toy car. "I’m sorry," he admitted. "It was an accident. I’ll help you fix it." Ali smiled, and together they repaired the toy. That evening, the second seed sprouted with golden leaves. The Seed of Patience On the third day, Siraj planted the final seed. While building a kite with Ali, it kept falling apart. Siraj wanted to quit but remembered his grandmother’s words about patience. He took a deep breath, tried again, and finally, the kite flew high. That evening, the seed sprouted into colorful flowers. A Magical Lesson Siraj’s garden bloomed beautifully, reflecting his acts of kindness, honesty, and patience. His grandmother smiled and said, "These values will help you grow into the best version of yourself." From then on, Siraj shared his magic seeds of values with others, spreading happiness everywhere. The End.
