Bunny and Bear. First Day of School, written by Sara Reda. Illustrations by Mustafa TM, a school deep in a forest not very far away, was filled with friendly animals who love to learn and play. They came from different homes. Some lived in big tall trees, while others lived in bushes and some in caves with bees. The animals were different, the nature not the same. Some were very confident, while others just felt plain. Today was extra special. It was the first school day. First they'd meet their new teacher, then get some time to play. Ms. Moose walked in and greeted them. She said, A big Hello. Today we'll learn each other's names. Let's all sit in a row. The animals lined up, each selecting their own chair. Then one by one, they stood to speak. First was a brave bear when Bear walked into any room, he always stood so proud. He spoke with grace and eloquence, but some thought he was loud. Hello, my name is Bear, he said. His whisper was a roar. Today I hope to make new friends with whom I can explore. The next to speak was bunny, looking shy and quite afraid. Her quiet voice just couldn't match the efforts that she made. I'm Bunny, she squeaked softly. Then, returning to her seat, she started fiddling with her paws and staring at her feet. Tell us about yourself, the teacher, Miss Moose, said. Yes, tell us. Tell us, shouted bear, What thoughts are in your head? Bunny kept her eyes down, silence hanging in the air. She wanted to say something, but just couldn't seem to share. Ha ha! Laughed bear so loud. He then pointed at Bunny instead of speaking. She just squeaks. I think that's really funny. The other animals joined right in. They started laughing, too. Bunnies pause, covered her ears. That's all she could do. Enough, You all dear, Miss, Moves cried. Her eyes were open wide. She swiftly moved across the room and paste from side to side. We are also different, she said, each with a different skill. I'm going to teach you something new. So listen and sit still. Bunny might not like to talk to her. May be new, but bear. I bet that Bonnie hops are hard for you to do. Some of us can run quite fast, but can't speak to a crowd. Others struggle with numbers but sing bravely and out loud. We each have special talents with skills that make us unique, trying new things together. Now that's what we should seek. You won't be good at everything. Some things are hard to do, but when you teach a friend of skill, you will learn something, too. So, Bear. I bet you could help Bunny feel proud of her sound, and in exchange she might teach you just how to hop around. Excited Bear stood up and yelled, There's so much I could share. It will be fun to show you. Bunny, speaking like a bear Bunny, smiled at Bear, showing off her biggest hop bears. Eyes lit up with wonder. His draw began to drop at once. The others followed suit, displaying skills they knew distinct and different. Everyone showed off what they could do. Their differences were their strengths. Once they learned how to share, they owed it all to two great friends, Brave bunny and kind bear
