Once upon a time, there was an odd-looking creature named "My". My was always proud of his height, but he had a peculiar habit of slouching and pouting. One day, some friends came to measure My's height, but every time they tried, he would slouch and they couldn't get an accurate measurement.

His friends teased him, "My, why do you always slouch?" But My just pouted and didn't answer. Frustrated, one friend gave him a friendly nudge and said, "Let's see how tall you really are!" With that encouragement, My stood up straight and the friends were amazed by his full height.

From that day on, My was no longer ashamed of his height and always stood proud. The end.

Reflections

1. Why did My slouch and pout?
2. How did My's friends help him stand tall?
3. How did My feel about his height before and after the story?
4. What lesson did My learn from this experience?
