Read together

Once upon a time, there was a wheel,
It sat all alone, without appeal.
But then along came a friend or two,
And suddenly there were wheels, not just one but two!

One and one make two, you see,
And together they're happy as can be.
But soon they realized there's more to find,
As they rolled and explored, they left one wheel behind.

Then they met three wheels, a trio so cool,
Together they were unstoppable, nothing could be their fool.
But they realized they weren't the only ones around,
For there were many more wheels waiting to be found.

Soon they were four, a fantastic team,
Rolling around, living the dream.
With four wheels, they could go far,
And explore all the wonders, no matter how bizarre.

So don't be afraid to reach out and explore,
There are many new friends to adore.
From one to two, three, and four,
Together you'll discover so much more.

Talk about it
