The Dream Snake
Brett is a selfish 7-year-old boy living in Orlando who dreams of a brightly colored Mayan snake with wings. He embarks on a summer adventure to uncover the mystery behind the snake, learning the value of charity along the way.
Brett loved summer in Orlando. He spent his days playing video games and eating candy. One night, he had a strange dream about a brightly colored Mayan snake with wings. The snake spoke to him, saying, 'Find me, and you'll discover a great treasure.' Brett woke up determined to find the snake and its treasure.
Brett couldn't stop thinking about the dream. 'I need to find that snake,' he told himself. He decided to explore the nearby forest, where he believed the snake might be hiding. Brett grabbed a flashlight and some snacks and headed out. His adventure had just begun.
As Brett walked through the forest, he encountered his first obstacle. A fallen tree blocked his path. 'How am I going to get past this?' Brett wondered. He tried climbing over it but slipped and fell. 'This is harder than I thought,' he muttered.
Brett decided to go around the tree instead. As he continued, he heard a rustling noise. 'Who's there?' he called out. A small, injured bird hopped out from behind a bush. 'I don't have time to help,' Brett thought, but something inside him felt guilty.
Brett's second obstacle was a steep hill. 'I can do this,' he told himself. He started climbing, but the ground was slippery. Halfway up, he lost his grip and slid back down. 'This is impossible!' Brett exclaimed in frustration.
Brett finally reached the top of the hill, only to find a wide river blocking his path. 'How am I supposed to cross this?' he wondered. He noticed some rocks sticking out of the water. 'Maybe I can jump across,' he thought, feeling uncertain.
Brett took a deep breath and started jumping from rock to rock. Halfway across, he slipped and fell into the water. 'Ugh, now I'm all wet,' he grumbled. He dragged himself to the other side, shivering and cold.
Brett was tired and soaked, but he kept going. 'I can't give up now,' he told himself. As he walked, he saw a family of ducks struggling to find food. 'I wish I could help them,' he thought, but he continued on his way.
Exhausted, Brett sat down on a rock to rest. 'Maybe this treasure isn't worth it,' he sighed. He thought about all the obstacles he had faced. 'Maybe I should just go home,' he considered, feeling defeated.
Suddenly, the brightly colored Mayan snake appeared before him. 'Why are you giving up, Brett?' the snake asked. Brett explained his struggles. 'You must learn to help others if you want to find the treasure,' the snake advised wisely.
Brett thought about the injured bird and the hungry ducks. 'I should go back and help them,' he realized. He rushed back to the bird and gently picked it up. 'I'll get you some help,' he promised the bird.
Brett found a vet who could help the injured bird. 'Thank you for bringing it here,' the vet said. Brett felt a warm feeling inside. 'You're welcome,' he replied, realizing how good it felt to help others.
Next, Brett returned to the river to help the ducks. 'I can share my snacks with them,' he thought. He broke his snacks into small pieces and tossed them to the ducks. 'Here you go, little guys,' he said with a smile.
As Brett helped the ducks, the brightly colored Mayan snake appeared again. 'You have learned the value of charity, Brett,' the snake said. 'Now you are ready for the treasure.' Brett felt proud and excited.
The snake led Brett to a hidden cave in the forest. 'The treasure is inside,' the snake said. Brett entered the cave and found a chest filled with gold and jewels. But more importantly, he found a note that read, 'The greatest treasure is a kind heart.'
Brett returned home, feeling happy and fulfilled. He knew the real treasure was the joy of helping others. 'From now on, I'll be more charitable,' he promised himself. And Brett kept his promise, spreading kindness wherever he went.
