Ziggy the Zebra’s Colorful Stripes
In the vibrant jungle, Ziggy the Zebra longs for colorful stripes like his friends, but learns through a series of challenges that courage and self-acceptance are more valuable than appearances.
Ziggy the Zebra lived in a bright jungle full of colorful friends. Zebras like Ziggy were black and white, but Ziggy wished for colors. He saw blue birds, green frogs, and red parrots. Ziggy felt sad without colors like those. He decided to find colorful stripes, believing it would make him happy.
Ziggy's journey began, but the first obstacle was a big muddy river. Ziggy stopped and thought, "How will I get across?" He felt scared and unsure. A friendly hippo swam by and noticed Ziggy. - Why are you so sad, little zebra? the hippo asked.
With the hippo's help, Ziggy crossed the river. But then, he found tall thorny bushes blocking his way. Ziggy tried to push through but got stuck. He felt alone and started to cry. - I can't do it! Ziggy sobbed. A wise old monkey swung down from the trees.
The wise old monkey watched Ziggy give up. Ziggy sat on the ground, feeling defeated. - Maybe I'm just meant to be black and white, Ziggy sighed. The monkey patted him gently. - Sometimes, the best colors are inside of us, the monkey said.
Ziggy listened to the monkey's wise words. Suddenly, he saw the colors in his heart. Ziggy realized he didn't need different stripes to be special. - Thank you, friend, Ziggy smiled. He felt brave and happy just as he was.
With newfound courage, Ziggy returned home. He saw his friends and felt happy with his black-and-white stripes. - I'm proud to be me! Ziggy cheered. His friends gathered around, celebrating Ziggy's courage. Ziggy learned that being himself was the greatest treasure of all.
