In the heart of New York City, there was a lively little girl named Hazel. She loved exploring her neighborhood with curious eyes. But Hazel had a big problem: she couldn't talk yet! She wanted to tell her family what she needed, but words wouldn't come out. Hazel felt a little lost in the big city. - How can I show them what I want? Hazel wondered.
One sunny day, Hazel wanted a snack from the kitchen. She reached for the cookie jar but couldn't open the lid. - Oh no, I can't get my cookie! Hazel exclaimed. She tried pointing at the jar, but her family didn't understand. Hazel felt frustrated and hungry. Her tummy rumbled loudly.
Hazel decided to try again. She waved her arms and clapped her hands, hoping to get attention. But her family was busy and didn't notice her gestures. - Please see me, Hazel said softly to herself. She felt like she would never get her snack. Just then, her brother came in and spotted her.
Hazel sat down with a sigh, feeling like giving up. Her brother sat beside her and watched her closely. - What's wrong, Hazel? he asked kindly. Hazel felt tears in her eyes. She pointed sadly at the cookie jar. Her brother nodded, understanding her at last.
Her brother had an idea and took Hazel's hand. He showed her how to tap his shoulder when she wanted something. Hazel's face lit up with joy. - Like this? Hazel tapped his shoulder gently. - Yes, just like that! he replied. Hazel felt hopeful again.
From that day on, Hazel used her new gesture to ask for things. When she tapped her brother's shoulder, he understood her needs. Hazel was proud she could communicate without words. Her family celebrated her success with a big hug. - I can tell you what I want! Hazel giggled happily.
