How Dotty Found Her Shine

Story Illustration

Once upon a time in Happytown, there was a little duckling named Dotty. Dotty loved waddling around the pond with her bright yellow feathers and singing her quack-quack song. But one day, Dotty noticed the other animals admiring their own colorful feathers or unique sounds. She felt a little sad that she couldn't stand out like the others.

Her wise old friend, Grandpa Goose, took Dotty under his wing and said, 'You know, Dotty, each of us is special in our way, just like you with your cheerful quack. How about we organize a pride parade where everyone can celebrate what makes them unique?'

Dotty's eyes sparkled with excitement as she quacked her agreement. On the day of the parade, Dotty proudly waddled with her feathers shining bright. All the animals joined in, showing off their quirks and talents, and Dotty realized that being herself is something to be proud of.
