Timo's Steady Journey

Timo the turtle was the slowest animal in the forest. Everyone knew it and many laughed

at him for it. One morning, the forest animals discovered that the only water pond

was drying up fast. They needed someone to reach the nearby river and push open the old blocked

channel. The rabbits ran fast but got tired quickly. The deer sprinted

but slipped on the rocky trail. The monkeys swung but couldn’t pass the thorny bushes.

Only Timo kept moving slow, steady, unstoppable. By sunset,

he reached the blocked channel and pushed with all his strength. The water finally rushed into the

pond, saving every animal in the forest. The animals cheered. Timo simply smiled.
