D, Come Diverso
In the vibrant seaside town of Viareggio, siblings Miranda and Tommaso embark on a journey to embrace differences at their school. When they meet a new classmate who is different from them, they face challenges of acceptance and understanding, leading to a lesson in tolerance.
Miranda and Tommaso loved living in Viareggio, where the sea breeze carried laughter and adventure. One day, a new student, Amir, joined their class. He looked and spoke differently, causing curiosity and whispers among the students. Miranda, known for her curiosity, wanted to learn more about Amir. However, not everyone felt the same way. Understanding and accepting someone different seemed like a big challenge for the kids in their school.
Miranda and Tommaso noticed Amir sitting alone during lunch. - Why won't anyone talk to him? Tommaso asked. - Maybe they're just unsure, Miranda replied. They decided to invite Amir to join them, but others warned them not to. The fear of being teased for befriending someone different became their first obstacle.
The next day, Miranda and Tommaso invited Amir to a game of soccer. Some kids laughed and said Amir wouldn’t understand their rules. - I just want to play, Amir said softly. Despite their attempt, the game quickly ended when other kids refused to pass the ball to Amir. Miranda felt frustrated as she watched Amir walk away, dejected.
Feeling defeated, Miranda sat by the sea, watching waves crash against the shore. - Maybe it’s too hard, Tommaso sighed. - I thought we could make a difference, Miranda replied, her eyes on the horizon. They considered giving up on trying to help Amir fit in. The challenge felt too big, like an unsolvable puzzle.
The following day, their teacher Miss Rossi shared a story about different cultures. - Everyone has something unique to offer, she said. Inspired, Miranda and Tommaso realized they could learn from Amir. - Let’s find out more about him, Miranda suggested. This idea sparked a new resolve to embrace differences by learning and sharing stories.
With newfound determination, Miranda and Tommaso organized a cultural day at school. - We want everyone to share something special about themselves, Tommaso explained to the class. Amir shared stories from his country, and the kids were fascinated. - I didn’t know we could have so much in common, Miranda said, smiling at Amir. The school learned to celebrate differences, and acceptance blossomed like never before.
