Once upon a time, in a far-off land, there lived a group of plates who loved to play together. They spent their days having fun and enjoying each other's company. But one day, they heard that the cinders, their closest friends, were becoming extinct. The plates were very worried and decided to do something about it. They decided to hold a big party for the cinders and show them how much they were loved. They gathered all the food and drinks they could find and threw a big celebration. The cinders were so happy and grateful, they danced and sang into the night. From that day on, the plates and cinders were the best of friends, and the cinders were no longer in danger of becoming extinct. The end.

Reflections

1. Why did the plates want to help the cinders?
2. How did the plates show their love for the cinders?
3. What did the cinders do at the party?
4. Did the cinders become extinct after the party?
5. Do you think the plates and cinders will always be friends?
