Sammy the Cautious Squirrel

In a bright, bustling town, there lived a little squirrel named Sammy. Sammy loved to explore, but he always remembered one important word: caution!

One sunny day, Sammy spotted a shiny acorn on the other side of the road. “Oh, how I want that acorn!” he squeaked. But then he paused. “What if a car comes zooming by?”

So, Sammy took a deep breath and looked both ways. He waited patiently until the road was clear. With a happy hop, he dashed across and grabbed the acorn!

A Lesson to Remember!

Remember, little friends, being cautious helps keep you safe while having fun!
