The Brave Little Bird
Once upon a time, in a big forest, there was a little bird named Timmy. Timmy was very small, and his wings were not very strong. Every day, he watched the other birds fly high in the sky. Timmy wished he could do the same, but he was afraid of falling.
One day, a strong wind blew through the forest. Many birds flew high, but Timmy stayed on the ground. "I will never be as brave as them," Timmy thought. But then, a wise old owl flew down to Timmy and said, "Timmy, if you never try, you will never know what you can do. You have the strength inside you."
Timmy listened carefully to the owl’s words. He took a deep breath and tried to fly. To his surprise, he flew higher than he ever thought possible!
