Timmy was a little turtle who was very shy. He always hid inside his shell whenever someone talked to him. One day, all the animals in the pond were getting ready for the “Big Race.” Timmy wanted to join but felt too scared.
His friend, Bella the butterfly, said kindly, “You can do it, Timmy! Just believe in yourself.” Timmy thought about her words and decided to try.
When the race started, Timmy moved slowly but didn’t give up. Step by step, he kept going. Everyone cheered, “Go, Timmy, go!”
At the end, Timmy crossed the finish line with a big smile. He didn’t come first, but he felt proud. From that day, Timmy wasn’t shy anymore—he learned that being brave means trying your best!
