Once upon a time there was a little dragon who had a very long and thin tongue. His tongue was so sticky that he could stick it to anything. One day, the dragon wanted to use his tongue to help others. He went to the forest to see if he could find anything that needed his help.

He saw a tree that had fallen over and was blocking the path of a group of animals. The dragon used his strong tongue to lift the tree and move it out of the way. The animals were so grateful that they asked the dragon if there was anything they could do to thank him.

The dragon thought for a moment and then said, "I have a problem with my teeth. They are always getting dirty and I can't brush them properly. Can you help me find a solution?"

The animals knew just what to do. They found a long, thin brush and gave it to the dragon. The dragon was so happy! He used the brush to clean his teeth and his smile was brighter than ever before.

From that day on, the dragon used his sticky tongue and strong muscles to help anyone in need in the forest. And every night, he used his new brush to keep his teeth clean and healthy.

The end.
