One sunny day, Lina was helping her father, a kind gardener, plant seeds in their garden. She asked, "Papa, why don’t we plant anything near the dark forest?" Her father smiled. "The forest may seem scary, Lina, but fear is like darkness—it feels big, but it shrinks when you face it." Lina frowned. "But what if it doesn’t? What if something bad happens?" Her father held up a small seed. "Do you know what this is?" "A seed," Lina replied. "Yes," her father said. "It’s tiny, but with care, it grows into a strong tree. Courage is like this seed. It starts small but grows every time you face your fears." That evening, Lina thought about her father’s words. The next morning, she stood at the edge of the forest, holding her lucky stone. Her heart raced as she stepped inside. The tall trees cast long shadows, and strange sounds filled the air. But Lina remembered, "One step at a time." As she walked, she noticed wildflowers and sunlight peeking through the trees. The forest wasn’t as scary as she thought. That evening, Lina thought about her father’s words.

very year, the animals of the Great Forest come together for the Forest Games, a fun-filled day of friendly competitions—racing, jumping, climbing, and balancing events that celebrate each animal’s unique abilities. Milo the Moose has always loved watching the games, but this year, he wants to participate. There’s just one problem: Milo can’t run or jump like the others. His legs aren’t as strong, and he moves more slowly than his friends. Some animals worry that the games might be too difficult for him, but Milo is determined to find a way to compete in his own way. With the help of his inventive raccoon friend, Hazel, Milo modifies his walking cart with new wheels and a gentle push mechanism, allowing him to move more easily. As the games begin, Milo discovers that while he may not be the fastest, he has other strengths—he’s great at balancing, solving tricky obstacles, and encouraging others when they feel discouraged. During the final event, a team relay, one of the fastest competitors, Benny the Rabbit, trips and twists his ankle. The whole team is at risk of losing—until Milo steps in. Using his cart, he carries Benny across the finish line, proving that winning isn’t about being the fastest or the strongest—it’s about teamwork, kindness, and determination. At the end of the games, the animals cheer for Milo, not because he won the most events, but because he showed everyone that true strength comes from never giving up. Inspired by him, the animals decide that next year’s Forest Games will include new events that celebrate different kinds of abilities, ensuring that everyone has a chance to shine.
