One sunny day, Lily the turtle was playing on the golden sand with her friends. She found a shiny seashell and thought it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. But Lily knew the shell belonged to her friend, Sammy the seagull. Sammy was looking for his special shell everywhere. Lily felt her heart race. What should she do?
Lily decided to keep the shiny seashell. She tucked it under her shell and continued playing. But every time she saw Sammy, she felt a little guilty. Sammy was getting sadder because he couldn't find his shell. Lily didn't know what to do.
Lily tried to enjoy the day, but she couldn't stop thinking about the shell. She wanted to give it back, but she was afraid Sammy would be mad at her. Lily's friends noticed she wasn't her usual happy self. They asked her what was wrong.
- Why do you look so sad, Lily? asked her friend, Benny the crab. - I have something to tell you, Lily said, but then she hesitated. She thought about how much Sammy loved his shell. Lily felt so confused and didn't know what to do.
Just then, Grandma Turtle came by. - What's bothering you, Lily? she asked kindly. Lily took a deep breath and told her everything. - It's always best to be honest, Grandma Turtle said. - Your friend will understand if you tell the truth. Lily felt a bit better hearing this.
Lily found Sammy and took the shiny seashell from under her shell. - Sammy, I have your shell, she said nervously. - I'm so sorry I took it. Sammy looked at her and then smiled. - Thank you for telling the truth, Lily. Friends should always be honest with each other. Lily felt much happier and hugged Sammy.
