So the fish got up all of its might, jumped out of the water and yelled, “LET ME GO! Please!”, he said please because he was a polite fish after all. The fisherman didn’t move, he just kept trying to reel the fish in. “Well, what did he say?” asked Sally. “He doesn’t speak fish” replied the fish.

In Whispering Woods, a clever squirrel named Squeaky loved to gather acorns, leaves, and berries, keeping everything for himself. One day, a tiny bird named Chirpy, with a hurt wing, asked Squeaky for help to gather twigs for his nest. Squeaky, too focused on collecting acorns, refused. Later, Squeaky met wise Oliver the owl, who explained that the forest thrived on kindness. Ignoring the advice, Squeaky continued hoarding, only to find his acorns mysteriously disappearing. Panicked, Squeaky rushed back to Oliver, who reminded him of the forest's magic: “When you help others, the forest helps you in return.” Feeling guilty, Squeaky helped Chirpy build a cozy nest, and to his surprise, his acorns reappeared. From that day, Squeaky learned the true power of kindness, sharing his treasures and helping others. The forest grew brighter, and everyone was happier, as they all discovered that kindness is the greatest treasure of all.

Si Timey Tommy ay isang mabait na batang orasan na mahilig tumulong sa iba upang malaman ang tamang oras. Isang araw, habang naglalakad siya sa parke, may nakita siyang isang batang nagngangalang Lia na nalilito sa kanyang orasan. "Timey Tommy, paano ko malalaman kung anong oras na?" tanong ni Lia. Ngumiti si Timey Tommy at sinabi, "Madali lang ‘yan! May dalawang kamay ang orasan. Ang maikling kamay ay para sa ORAS, at ang mahabang kamay ay para sa MINUTO!" Ipinakita ni Timey Tommy ang kanyang sariling mukha na hugis-orasan. Ang maikling kamay niya ay nakaturo sa 8, at ang mahabang kamay niya ay nakaturo sa 12. "Kapag ang mahabang kamay ay nasa 12, ito ay tinatawag na ‘O’clock’! Ibig sabihin, ang oras ay 8:00!" paliwanag ni Timey Tommy. "Ah! Kaya pala! Kapag ang maikling kamay ay nasa 3 at ang mahabang kamay ay nasa 12, ibig sabihin ay 3:00!" tuwang-tuwang sagot ni Lia. "Tama! Ngayon, handa ka nang malaman ang tamang oras!" sabi ni Timey Tommy. Mula noon, hindi na nalilito si Lia sa pagbabasa ng orasan. Lagi niyang naaalala ang sinabi ni Timey Tommy: “Ang maikling kamay ay para sa oras, at ang mahabang kamay ay para sa minuto!” ________________________________________
