Once upon a time, in a far-off land, there lived a girl named She. She loved to play hide and seek with her shadows, but one day she noticed that her shadow wouldn't keep still. It would shake and change shape, no matter how still she stood. She asked her friends to help, but no one could explain the strange behavior of her shadow.

One day, She stumbled upon a group of sheep who were sharing a large sheet to protect themselves from the scorching sun rays. Suddenly, an idea struck her. She asked the sheep if she could share their sheet and the sheep agreed. As soon as she stepped under the sheet, the shaking and changing of her shadow stopped.

She realized that the sun was too sharp, and it was causing her shadow to behave erratically. From then on, whenever the sun got too hot, she would go and share the sheet with the sheep and her shadow would be calm and still.

And so, She learned that sometimes all we need is a little shade to feel protected and secure. The end.
