Freddy the Frill-neck lizard lived in the sunny Australian outback. He was a bright yellow and always felt anxious. One day, Freddy's frills popped out when he felt scared. He didn't understand why this happened. Freddy wanted to find out why his feelings were so big.
Freddy went to his friend, Kangaroo Kylie, for help. Kylie was hopping around happily. Freddy's frills popped out even more when he talked to her. He was nervous about his feelings. Freddy asked Kylie why his frills popped out.
- Why do my frills pop out, Kylie? Freddy asked. - Maybe it's because you're feeling something really strongly, Kylie said. - But I don't like it, Freddy said. - Let's figure it out together, Kylie replied. Freddy felt a bit better with Kylie by his side.
Freddy and Kylie met their friend Wally the Wombat. Wally was digging a hole. - Wally, can you help us? Freddy asked. - Sure, what's up? Wally replied. Freddy explained his frills problem to Wally.
- Sometimes, my frills pop out when I'm scared, Freddy said. - Maybe you're feeling more than just scared, Wally suggested. - What do you mean? Freddy asked. - Let's think about it together, Wally replied. Freddy hoped Wally could help too.
As they walked, Freddy's frills popped out again. This time, a kookaburra laughed at him from a tree. - Stop laughing at me! Freddy cried. - I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing with you, said Kookaburra Ken. Freddy felt more frustrated.
- Why are you laughing? Freddy asked angrily. - Because sometimes it's okay to laugh at our worries, Ken said. - But I'm not laughing! Freddy shouted. - Maybe that's why your frills are out, Ken suggested. Freddy felt confused and angry.
Freddy's frills popped out again when a big shadow passed over. It was a giant eagle! - I'm so scared! Freddy yelled. - It's okay to feel scared, Kylie said. - But my frills won't go down! Freddy cried. Freddy was feeling overwhelmed.
Freddy wanted to give up. - I'll never understand my feelings, he said. - Don't give up, Freddy, Kylie said. - We're here to help, Wally added. But Freddy felt too anxious to keep trying. He just wanted his frills to go away.
Freddy sat under a tree, feeling hopeless. - Maybe I just need to hide forever, he said. - Hiding won't help, Kylie said. - But what can I do? Freddy asked. - Let's talk about each feeling, Ken suggested. Freddy listened carefully.
- When do your frills pop out the most? Ken asked. - When I'm scared, Freddy said. - What else do you feel? Ken asked. - Angry, sad, frustrated, Freddy said. - Talking about your feelings can help, Ken said. Freddy started to understand.
- It's okay to feel scared and angry, Ken said. - But what if my frills pop out? Freddy asked. - That's just your body telling you how you feel, Kylie said. - So it's not bad? Freddy asked. - No, it's not, Wally said. Freddy felt a bit better.
Freddy took a deep breath. - I feel scared, but I also feel brave, he said. - That's good, Kylie said. - Your frills are going down, Ken said. - Really? Freddy asked. - Yes, you're doing great, Wally said. Freddy smiled for the first time.
Freddy felt calm and happy. - I can handle my feelings, he said. - We're proud of you, Kylie said. - You did it, Wally added. - Thank you for helping me, Freddy said. Freddy's frills stayed down, and he felt brave.
