Once upon a time, there was a group of friends - Rabbit, Tiger, Elephant, Giraffe, Zebra and Monkey. They loved to play together in the jungle, but everyone had different interests. One day, they decided to have a race to see who was the fastest.

Giraffe thought he would win because he was tall, but Rabbit tricked him by taking shortcuts. Tiger was confident because he was strong, but Elephant used his trunk to blow him away. Zebra was fast, but Monkey swung from tree to tree and beat him. In the end, it was a tie between Rabbit and Monkey!

They all laughed and realized that being different is what makes them special. From that day on, they continued to play together and have fun, no matter who won the race. The end.

Reflections

• Who won the race in the end?
• What did the friends learn from the race?
• Why is it important to embrace our differences?
• Can you think of a time when you and your friends had a competition or race? What did you learn from it?
