Nemo's Big Question
In the bustling city of Chicago, a curious young boy named Nemo sets out to understand why people eat animals. With each question he asks, Nemo faces obstacles that challenge his beliefs, but his determination leads him to an unexpected discovery about wisdom and compassion.
Nemo was sitting at the kitchen table, watching his mom prepare dinner. He noticed the chicken on the counter and felt a twist in his tummy. He asked, - Mommy, why do people eat animals? His mom paused, unsure of how to answer. Nemo felt a strong need to understand why people saw animals differently from him.
Nemo decided to ask his friends at school the next day. But when he did, they just laughed and said, - Because they taste good! This answer didn't satisfy Nemo. He felt more confused and a little hurt. He realized that finding out the answer would be harder than he thought.
Determined, Nemo went to the library to look for answers. He read books about animals and their habitats. But the more he read, the more questions he had. - Why can't everyone just be friends with animals? he wondered aloud. It seemed like no book had the answer he was looking for.
Feeling overwhelmed, Nemo sat by the window, watching the rain fall. He thought about giving up his search. - Maybe I'll never understand, he sighed. His heart felt heavy, and he didn't know what to do next. He wondered if he was asking the wrong questions.
Just then, his grandpa came to visit and saw Nemo looking sad. - What's wrong, little buddy? he asked. Nemo explained his question, and his grandpa listened carefully. - Sometimes, it's not about finding the answer, but understanding different perspectives, he advised. Nemo felt a flicker of hope and new understanding.
With his grandpa's wisdom, Nemo realized he could choose kindness and still respect others' choices. He talked to his mom and decided they would make a special plant-based meal together. - This is our way to show love, even if it's different, he said happily. Nemo felt wiser and more at peace with his big question.
