In a small Indian town, a curious little girl named Gunnu faces the daunting prospect of moving from her beloved playgroup to a big nursery school. Feeling scared and unsure, Gunnu encounters several obstacles and moments of self-doubt. With the support of her family and friends, she learns to embrace change with courage and discovers that new adventures can be fun and exciting.

Once upon a time in a sunny Indian town, there lived a lively girl named Gunnu. She loved playing in her garden and learning new things at playgroup. One day, she heard her parents talking about moving her to nursery school. Nursery school seemed so big and scary to Gunnu. What if she didn't like it and missed her friends?

Gunnu couldn't stop thinking about nursery school. At playgroup, she felt safe and happy with her friends, Adi, Saradiya, Jivu and Bika. But nursery school was full of unknowns. - I don't want to leave playgroup, Gunnu said, feeling scared. Her friends tried to cheer her up, but she still felt nervous.

The first obstacle came when Gunnu tried to talk to her teacher, Aisha Ma'am. - Aisha Ma'am, do I have to go to nursery? she asked softly. Aisha Ma'am smiled kindly and said, - Yes, Gunnu, but it's a chance to learn even more. But Gunnu wasn't sure she wanted new things. The thought of leaving her favorite teacher made her sad.

The second obstacle appeared when Gunnu's friend Adi shared his excitement about nursery school. - There's a big playground there! Adi said with wide eyes. But Gunnu only felt more worried. What if the playground was too big and she got lost? Her fears grew bigger with each new thought.

The next day, Gunnu's parents took her to visit the nursery school. Everything looked big and different. - I don't know if I can do this, Gunnu whispered to her Mama. She felt tiny in the huge school. Her courage seemed to disappear as new worries filled her mind.

Gunnu wanted to give up. She didn't want to leave her small, cozy playgroup. - I can't go to nursery, she told her mama, feeling very small. Mama Lalita hugged her tight. - It's okay to be scared, but we believe in you, she said softly. Gunnu's heart was heavy with fear.

That night, as Gunnu lay in bed, she remembered Mama Lalita's words. Maybe she could be brave. - What if nursery school is fun? she wondered aloud. Her curiosity sparked a tiny flame of hope. Could she really face her fears and take the big step?

The next morning, Gunnu had a breakthrough. She decided to give nursery school a try. - I can be brave, she told her reflection in the mirror. Her heart felt a little lighter. She felt ready to explore this new adventure, one small step at a time.

At nursery school, Gunnu met her new teacher, who was kind and welcoming. She found new friends and new games to play. - This isn't so bad, Gunnu thought happily. Her courage grew as she discovered that nursery school wasn't as scary as she imagined. It was the beginning of a new adventure.

Gunnu solved her problem with courage and curiosity. - I was scared, but I'm glad I tried, she told her parents at the end of the day. Mama Lalita and Papa Tapaswi were proud of her bravery. Gunnu learned that facing new things with courage could lead to wonderful adventures. She was ready for whatever came next.
