What Did Felix Bring?
It’s show and tell day at school. Felix has a mystery box. What’s inside?
It was show and tell day. Everyone had brought something special. Nell had a toy dinosaur. Another child had a big book. Felix held a little box tightly, with a secret inside.
‘Now, Felix,’ said Dev the deer. ‘What have you brought?’ Felix felt a bit shy. His thing was so small. What if no one liked it? But he stood up bravely.
Felix opened the box very slowly. The whole class leaned forward. Inside was a seashell! Felix said, ‘I found it on my walk to school. It made me smile, so I wanted to show you.’
‘Ooooh!’ said the children. Nell said, ‘Can I hold it?’ Everyone wanted to see. Felix passed it round carefully, and every face lit up with wonder.
‘What a lovely thing to share,’ said Dev. Felix beamed. The best things aren’t always big. Sometimes, they’re small and found by someone who looks closely.
