🦃 Terry’s Story Corner
A big pile of fresh berries had ripened, and the backyard friends were trying to figure out the best way to divide them so everyone got a fair share. The smaller friends were worried they might be forgotten in the rush.
Terry, seeing the confusion, puffed out his feathers and let out a resounding gobble. "Wait, friends! Before we rush, let's work as a team!"
He boldly took charge, organizing everyone into groups—the bigger animals helped pick, and the smaller ones, like Arnie the Ant and Milo the Mouse, helped carry the berries to a central spot. Terry personally made sure that everyone, no matter how small or quiet, was recognized and received a generous portion.
The harvest was a great success, not because of the berries, but because of the joyful teamwork.
That’s Terry. Using his bold voice and community spirit to bring everyone together, making the backyard a welcoming place for all.
