Harry the Helpful Hedgehog

In a bright, colorful world, there lived a little hedgehog named Harry. Harry had sharp, pointy quills that sparkled in the sun!

One day, he decided to help his friends. “I can poke the big, round apples down from the tree!” he said. With a gentle poke, down came the apples, rolling and bouncing everywhere!

All the animals cheered, “Hooray for Harry!” They had a delicious feast, and Harry learned that being sharp can be helpful and fun!

Just like Harry, remember that everyone has something special about them. What makes you special?
