Once upon a time, in the North Pole, there was a reindeer named Rudolph who loved to play pranks on his friends. One day, he convinced Beluga Whale, Walrus, Narwhal and Penguin to join him for a swimming race to the other side of the Arctic Ocean.

But as they swam, Polar Bear appeared, and challenged them to a race instead. The animals agreed, but little did they know, Polar Bear was a sneaky cheater! He used his powerful arms to push them all behind, leaving them far behind.

Just when Polar Bear was about to cross the finish line, Rudolph had an idea. He lit up his shiny red nose, and the bright light blinded Polar Bear, causing him to stumble and fall into the water!

The other animals cheered as Rudolph crossed the finish line first. From that day on, they all made sure to stay alert during races, just in case Polar Bear tried to cheat again. The end.

Reflections

1. Why did Rudolph light up his nose?
2. Who won the race?
3. Was Polar Bear a fair player?
4. How did the other animals feel about the race?
5. What did the animals learn from the race?
