Billy the Goat Who Wouldn’t Float
Join Billy, the curious and courageous goat, on a beach adventure as he learns the importance of honesty and friendship. When Billy refuses to wear his floaties, he finds himself in a hilarious predicament with sea creatures, teaching him a valuable lesson.
Billy the Goat stood proud on the sand, Refusing the floaties his mom had in hand. “I’m a strong swimmer, as brave as can be! I’ll dive and I’ll splash in the big, wide sea!
He leapt in the water with a gleeful cheer, Not noticing waves rolling closer, quite near. A splash and a swoosh, and oh, what a scene— Poor Billy was caught in the ocean’s big stream!
The dolphin then carried young Billy to shore, Where floaties were waiting, just as before. Billy chuckled and said, 'I see it’s quite clear, These will keep me safe while I swim far and near!
A crab waved a claw and said with a grin, “Hey there, young goat, don’t you know how to swim?” “I thought I could, but the waves were too strong. Maybe my mom wasn’t so wrong…
Billy lay back with a smile so wide, “The beach is still fun!” he happily cried. He soaked up the sun, with the waves in his reach, Dreaming of his next adventure on the beach.
They swam past a turtle, slow as a snail, And a fish that looked like it was wagging a tail. Each creature agreed, as they formed a parade, “Floaties are smart when adventures are made!
Down, down he drifted, all swirly and spun, Until he bumped into a jellyfish, stunned. “Who are you, young goat, in the ocean so deep? This isn’t a pond—it’s no place for a leap!
Now Billy the Goat’s the smartest afloat, Wearing his floaties, he paddles his boat. His friends in the sea give a cheerful hooray— For Billy has learned and is ready to play!
