Read the story Easy English
Sammy was a small squirrel who lived in a soft and silent forest. Sammy had a special tail that shimmered with a silver shine. His silver tail sparkled softly under the sun and glowed under the stars. Other squirrels in the forest had simple brown tails. Some squirrels stared and whispered that Sammy's tail was too strange. Sammy felt shy and sad, sitting alone on a small stone.
One evening, a strong storm came to the forest. The sky turned dark and windy, shaking the tall trees and blowing leaves away. The little squirrels felt very scared because they could not see the path back home. The forest became dark and confusing. Sammy looked around carefully and saw his silver tail begin to glow softly like a bright light in the night. Sammy softly told the scared squirrels to follow his shining tail.
The squirrels looked at Sammy with hope and followed his glowing light. Sammy walked slowly and safely step by step through the dark forest. His silver tail lit up the path so everyone could see where to walk. Soon, all the squirrels reached their warm homes safely. They smiled at Sammy and thanked him for saving them. Sammy felt warm and happy inside, proud of his special glowing tail.
