A História da Criança Que Sempre Contava a Verdade
Pedro, a 9-year-old boy from Gramado, faces challenges at school for always telling the truth. Despite feeling excluded, Pedro's journey reveals the power of honesty as he encounters problems and learns valuable lessons about friendship and integrity.
Pedro lived in the beautiful town of Gramado, known for its lush green landscapes and friendly people. Everyone admired him for his honesty, but sometimes it also caused him trouble. One day, his teacher, Dona Clara, asked the class if they completed their homework. All the students nodded, but Pedro stood up.
- Dona Clara, I couldn’t finish it because I didn’t understand the last question, Pedro admitted. The class started whispering and giggling. Pedro felt his cheeks turning red. "Why did you have to say that?" his friend Lucas whispered.
After class, Lucas confronted Pedro. - You’re always so honest, but that just embarrassed you, Lucas said. Pedro sighed, feeling confused. He wondered if telling the truth was worth the teasing. But deep down, he knew honesty was important.
The next day, during recess, a group of classmates crowded around Pedro. - Pedro, did you see who took the soccer ball yesterday? asked João. Pedro hesitated, knowing his answer would upset some.
- I saw it was Rafael, Pedro finally admitted. The group gasped and Rafael turned red with anger. "You just want to get me in trouble!" Rafael shouted. Pedro felt a pang of guilt but stood by his truth. Honesty was like a small fire inside him, warm and unwavering.
That afternoon, Pedro’s teacher approached him. - You did the right thing, Pedro, Dona Clara said, smiling kindly. But Pedro wasn’t sure. He started feeling that maybe honesty wasn’t the best policy in a world where people didn’t always want to hear the truth.
Pedro started avoiding his classmates, fearing more trouble. He spent more time alone, reading books under the big oak tree in the schoolyard. - What’s wrong, Pedro? his friend Ana asked, sitting beside him.
- I’m tired of getting in trouble for telling the truth, Pedro confessed to Ana. Ana nodded, understanding. - But who would we trust if not for someone like you? she asked gently. Pedro pondered her words and felt a little spark of hope.
The next day, a new problem arose. The principal announced that some school supplies were missing. Pedro knew he had seen a student with them. He wanted to stay silent to avoid more trouble, but Ana’s words echoed in his mind.
Pedro decided to speak up. - I saw who took them, Pedro announced bravely. His classmates listened, and soon the real culprit admitted to the mistake. Pedro’s honesty not only solved the problem but also earned him respect. In the end, his truth became his strength, and he realized honesty built true friendships.
