Rama Thanks the Squirrel
Rama saw the little squirrel working so hard, carrying tiny grains of sand.
Some had laughed at her, but not Rama. He gently lifted the squirrel into his hands.
"Thank you, little one," Rama said warmly. "Your small help is just as precious as the big help. You have a wonderful heart."
He softly stroked her back with three fingers. The squirrel glowed with happiness.
Rama showed that every helper deserves a thank you, no matter how small.
Always appreciate helpers, big and small.
