Mira's Kindness

In a bright little town, there lived a girl named Mira. One day, she noticed that some kids were being mean to a new student, Sam. Mira remembered how it felt to be left out, so she decided to be brave!

Suddenly, the sun seemed to shine brighter! Sam smiled, and the other kids joined in. They all had fun together, and Mira learned that being kind is much better than being mean.
