Read the story Easy English

In a nice and narrow northern ocean lived a narwhal named Nino. Nino had a long and shiny tusk that looked like a magical needle. His tusk was longer and brighter than those of the other narwhals. The other narwhals had normal tusks, and some made jokes about Nino. Nino felt nervous and tried to hide his tusk in the dark water. He swam near the night sea and noticed small things in the water.

One night, a noisy storm came, making the ocean water rough and dark. A strong current moved the narwhals away from home. The young narwhals felt nervous because they could not navigate the dark paths. Everyone felt lost in the deep night. Nino stayed close and listened carefully. He felt the gentle nudges of the current and knew which way was safe. Nino gently told the others to follow him slowly.

Nino moved with calm and care, guiding the narwhals through narrow sea paths. His long tusk pointed the right way every time and helped them avoid rough waves. Little by little, they reached home safely, and the storm went away. The narwhals thanked Nino and said his tusk was noble and needed. Nino felt proud and happy. From that night on, the narwhals trusted Nino as a kind guide.
