In a quiet forest, there lived a small squirrel named Nibbles. Nibbles was the tiniest squirrel in the forest. Sometimes, he felt sad because the bigger animals didn’t notice him much. But Nibbles had something special—he never gave up.
One sunny morning, dark clouds began to gather in the sky. Wise Owl flew to the animals and said, "A big storm is coming! We must get ready and make our homes safe!"
The bigger animals quickly ran to their homes. They collected leaves, branches, and food to stay safe during the storm. Nibbles also worked hard. He gathered nuts and covered his small nest with leaves to keep the rain out.
Soon, the storm arrived. The wind blew loudly, and the rain poured heavily. Nibbles stayed safe in his cozy nest. But then, he heard a small, frightened voice calling for help.
When Nibbles looked outside, he saw Sparky, the baby rabbit, stuck under a fallen branch. The bigger animals were too far away to hear Sparky’s cries, and the storm was too strong.
Even though Nibbles was scared, he knew he had to help. He found a strong stick and ran through the rain. Pushing and pulling with all his strength, Nibbles moved the branch and freed Sparky. The two friends hurried back to Nibbles’ nest and stayed safe together until the storm was over.
The next morning, all the animals came out to check on each other. When they heard how Nibbles saved Sparky, they cheered for him. From that day on, Nibbles knew that even though he was small, he could still do big and brave things.
Moral of the Story
"Being kind and brave can make anyone a hero, no matter their size."
